NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms. Contributions go to the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Fund, which provides a portion of the operating budget for the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program.

Temporal and Spatial Origin of Gesneriaceae in the New World Inferred from Plastid DNA Sequences
bs_bs_banner Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2013, 171, 61–79. With 3 figures Temporal and spatial origin of Gesneriaceae in the New World inferred from plastid DNA sequences MATHIEU PERRET1*, ALAIN CHAUTEMS1, ANDRÉA ONOFRE DE ARAUJO2 and NICOLAS SALAMIN3,4 1Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de la Ville de Genève, Ch. de l’Impératrice 1, CH-1292 Chambésy, Switzerland 2Centro de Ciências Naturais e Humanas, Universidade Federal do ABC, Rua Santa Adélia, 166, Bairro Bangu, Santo André, Brazil 3Department of Ecology and Evolution, University of Lausanne, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland 4Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, Quartier Sorge, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland Received 15 December 2011; revised 3 July 2012; accepted for publication 18 August 2012 Gesneriaceae are represented in the New World (NW) by a major clade (c. 1000 species) currently recognized as subfamily Gesnerioideae. Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous. -

Non-Expressway Master Plant List
MASTER PLANT LIST GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO PLANT LISTS Plants are living organisms. They possess variety in form, foliage and flower color, visual texture and ultimate size. There is variation in plants of the same species. Plants change: with seasons, with time and with the environment. Yet here is an attempt to categorize and catalogue a group of plants well suited for highway and expressway planting in Santa Clara County. This is possible because in all the existing variety of plants, there still remains a visual, morphological and taxonomical distinction among them. The following lists and identification cards emphasize these distinctions. 1 of 6 MASTER PLANT LIST TREES Acacia decurrens: Green wattle Acacia longifolia: Sydney golden wattle Acacia melanoxylon: Blackwood acacia Acer macrophyllum: Bigleaf maple Aesculus californica: California buckeye Aesculus carnea: Red horsechestnut Ailanthus altissima: Tree-of-heaven Albizia julibrissin: Silk tree Alnus cordata: Italian alder Alnus rhombifolia: White alder Arbutus menziesii: Madrone Calocedrus decurrens: Incense cedar Casuarina equisetifolia: Horsetail tree Casuarina stricta: Coast beefwood Catalpa speciosa: Western catalpa Cedrus deodara: Deodar cedar Ceratonia siliqua: Carob Cinnamomum camphora: Camphor Cordyline australis: Australian dracena Crataegus phaenopyrum: Washington thorn Cryptomeria japonica: Japanese redwood Cupressus glabra: Arizona cypress Cupressus macrocarpa: Monterey cypress Eriobotrya japonica: Loquat Eucalyptus camaldulensis: Red gum Eucalyptus citriodora: Lemon-scented -
A Synthesis of Geophysical and Biological Assessment to Determine Restoration Priorities
How can geomorphology inform ecological restoration? A synthesis of geophysical and biological assessment to determine restoration priorities A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Physical Geography By Leicester Cooper School of Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Victoria University Wellington 2012 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Acknowledgements Many thanks and much appreciation go to my supervisors Dr Bethanna Jackson and Dr Paul Blaschke, whose sage advice improved this study. Thanks for stepping into the breach; I hope you didn’t regret it. Thanks to the Scholarships Office for the Victoria Master’s (by thesis) Scholarship Support award which has made the progression of the study much less stressful. Thanks go to the various agencies that have provided assistance including; Stefan Ziajia from Kapiti Coast District Council, Nick Page from Greater Wellington Regional Council, Eric Stone from Department of Conservation, Kapiti office. Appreciation and thanks go to Will van Cruchten, for stoically putting up with my frequent calls requesting access to Whareroa Farm. Also, many thanks to Prof. Shirley Pledger for advice and guidance in relation to the statistical methods and analysis without whom I might still be working on the study. Any and all mistakes contained within I claim sole ownership of. Thanks to the generous technicians in the Geography department, Andrew Rae and Hamish McKoy and fellow students, including William Ries, for assistance with procurement of aerial images and Katrin Sattler for advice in image processing. To Dr Murray Williams, without whose sudden burst at one undergraduate lecture I would not have strayed down the path of ecological restoration. -

Argyrotegium Fordianum
Argyrotegium fordianum FAMILY: ASTERACEAE BOTANICAL NAME: Argyrotegium fordianum, (M.Gray) J.M.Ward & Breitw., N.Z. J. Bot. 41: 609 (2003) COMMON NAME: soft cottonleaf COMMONWEALTH STATUS: (EPBC Act) Not Listed TASMANIAN STATUS: (TSP Act) rare Argyrotegium fordianum. Tasmanian Herbarium specimen. Description An underground stem forming (rhizomatous), tufted perennial forb that is sometimes mat-like. Leaves: The leaves arise mostly from the base of the plant and are crowded towards the branch-tips. They are between 1.5-4 cm long and 5-10 mm wide. Both leaf surfaces are silvery-grey with dense cottony hairs. Flowers: The flowering stems are erect or sloping upward and between 4-9 cm tall (up to 15 cm in fruit) with 4-10 leaves only slightly smaller than the ones at the base of the plant. The flowerheads are arranged in clusters as the ends of the flowering stems. Each flowerhead contains between 5-15 florets. Flowering is from December to February (Flora of Victoria). Fruit: The fruit is small, dry, leathery and hairless, between 1.3-1.5 mm long (description from Walsh & Entwhisle 1999). This species was previously known as Euchiton fordianus or Gnaphalium fordianum. Ecology and Management There is currently no information available regarding the ecology and management of this species. Conservation Status Assessment Reassessment of Argyrotegium fordianum may be warranted due to the paucity of records though more information is required for a meaningful reassessment.
