  • The Vascular Flora of Mason Mountain Wildlife Management Area, Mason County, Texas
    2007 SOUTHEASTERNNATURALIST 6(4):683-692 The Vascular Flora of Mason Mountain Wildlife Management Area, Mason County, Texas ' Jason R. Singhurst ,Laura L. Sanchez2, Donnie Frels, Jr.3, T.Wayne Schwertner4, Mark Mitchell4, Sara Moren5, andWalter C. Holmes6 - Abstract A survey of the vascular flora of Mason Mountain Wildlife Management Area, located in the Llano Uplift of Central Texas, was conducted between spring of 2001 and spring of 2006. A total of 693 species and infraspecific taxa in 103 families and 376 genera were documented from 14 plant associations. Poaceae (117 species), Asteraceae (102 species), Fabaceae (46 species), and Euphorbiaceae (31 species) were the families with the largest number of species. Five taxa, Campanula reverchonii (basin bellflower), Eriogonum tenellum Torr. var. ramosissimum (tall buckwheat), Isoetes lithophila (rock quillwort), Packera texensis (Llano groundsel), and Tradescantia pedicellata (Edwards Plateau spiderwort) are endemic to the Llano Uplift, while 24 others are endemic to Texas. Other noteworthy taxa included Isoetes piedmontana (Piedmont quillwort), Pilularia americana (American pillwort), and Senecio ampullaceus (Texas ragwort). Introduction The Llano Uplift (Gould 1975, Lyndon B. Johnson School of Affairs 1978) of Texas comprises about 12,950 km2 (5000 mi2) of gently rolling to hilly lands that lie to the west of Austin and encompasses portions of Blanco, Burnet, Gillespie, Kimble, Llano, Lampasas, Mason, Menard, Mc Culloch, San Saba, and Travis counties. The study area is located in the area eastern portion of the Edwards Plateau vegetation of the state and is characterized by granite outcrops. Correll and Johnston (1970) describe the Edwards Plateau as a region of significant endemism; however, the granite-outcrop portion of this region has received limited botanical ex ploration over the past 150 years.

  • An Analysis of MOFEP Ground Flora
    An Analysis of MOFEP Ground Flora: Pre-treatment Conditions Jennifer K. Grabner, David R. Larsen, and John M. Kabrick1 Abstract.-8imilarities and differences in MOFEP ground flora spe­ cies composition were determined at site, block, and treatment levels. Ground flora data were collected across nine sites on 648 permanent forestry plots; more than 10,300 1-m2 quadrats were sampled each summer from 1991 through 1995. Approximately 530 species were identified; more than half occurred on fewer than 10 percent of the plots. Highly significant differences among sample years were ob­ served for plot richness, but were regarded as a reflection of improved data quality over the course of the project. Though plots averaged relatively high species diversity, wide ranges from low to high species richness and diversity existed within all sites. Analysis of variance on plot diversity and richness indicated a strong trend of differences between even-aged and control sites. Differences in ground flora species composition and abundance, plot richness, and plot diversity appear strongly correlated with pattems in geology, landform, and soils both within and among the MOFEP sites.

Brentwood Blvd. St. Louis, Missouri 63144 [email protected] JUSTIN R. THOMAS Institute of Botanical Training, LLC 111 County Road 3260 Salem, Missouri 65560 [email protected] ABSTRACT An annotated checklist of the 2,961 vascular taxa comprising the flora of Missouri is presented, with conservatism rankings for Floristic Quality Assessment. The list also provides standardized acronyms for each taxon and information on nativity, physiognomy, and wetness ratings. Annotated comments for selected taxa provide taxonomic, floristic, and ecological information, particularly for taxa not recognized in recent treatments of the Missouri flora. Synonymy crosswalks are provided for three references commonly used in Missouri. A discussion of the concept and application of Floristic Quality Assessment is presented. To accurately reflect ecological and taxonomic relationships, new combinations are validated for two distinct taxa, Dichanthelium ashei and D. werneri , and problems in application of infraspecific taxon names within Quercus shumardii are clarified. CONTENTS Introduction Species conservatism and floristic quality Application of Floristic Quality Assessment Checklist: Rationale and methods Nomenclature and taxonomic concepts Synonymy Acronyms Physiognomy, nativity, and wetness Summary of the Missouri flora Conclusion Annotated comments for checklist taxa Acknowledgements Literature Cited Ecological checklist of the Missouri flora Table 1.

Holmberg 530 W Whiskey Creek Rd, Washington, MO 63090 Woods Prairie is a scenic and rare refuge of unplowed native tallgrass prairie on the northwestern fringe of the Ozarks bioregion in southwestern Missouri. This isolated 40-acre prairie remnant near the town of Mt. Vernon was part of a 1,700-acre homestead settled in 1836 by John Blackburn Woods of Tennessee. For four generations, the Woods family carefully managed the prairie while protecting it from the plow as all other nearby prairies were destroyed. By 1999, less than 40 acres of the original vast prairie remained, and John’s great granddaughter, Mary Freda (Woods) O’Connell, sold it to the Ozark Regional Land Trust (ORLT, Carthage, MO), to be protected in perpetuity as a nature reserve for public study and enjoyment. ORLT, a non-profit conservation organization founded in 1984 to protect the unique natural features of the Ozarks, completed the purchase on May 27, 1999 through a unique, complex scheme detailed in Thomas and Galbraith (2003).
