A Phylogeny of the Hubbardochloinae Including Tetrachaete (Poaceae: Chloridoideae: Cynodonteae)
Peterson, P.M., K. Romaschenko, and Y. Herrera Arrieta. 2020. A phylogeny of the Hubbardochloinae including Tetrachaete (Poaceae: Chloridoideae: Cynodonteae). Phytoneuron 2020-81: 1–13. Published 18 November 2020. ISSN 2153 733 A PHYLOGENY OF THE HUBBARDOCHLOINAE INCLUDING TETRACHAETE (CYNODONTEAE: CHLORIDOIDEAE: POACEAE) PAUL M. PETERSON AND KONSTANTIN ROMASCHENKO Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution Washington, D.C. 20013-7012 [email protected]; [email protected] YOLANDA HERRERA ARRIETA Instituto Politécnico Nacional CIIDIR Unidad Durango-COFAA Durango, C.P. 34220, México [email protected] ABSTRACT The phylogeny of subtribe Hubbardochloinae is revisited, here with the inclusion of the monotypic genus Tetrachaete, based on a molecular DNA analysis using ndhA intron, rpl32-trnL, rps16 intron, rps16- trnK, and ITS markers. Tetrachaete elionuroides is aligned within the Hubbardochloinae and is sister to Dignathia. The biogeography of the Hubbardochloinae is discussed, its origin likely in Africa or temperate Asia. In a previous molecular DNA phylogeny (Peterson et al. 2016), the subtribe Hubbardochloinae Auquier [Bewsia Gooss., Dignathia Stapf, Gymnopogon P. Beauv., Hubbardochloa Auquier, Leptocarydion Hochst. ex Stapf, Leptothrium Kunth, and Lophacme Stapf] was found in a clade with moderate support (BS = 75, PP = 1.00) sister to the Farragininae P.M. Peterson et al. In the present study, Tetrachaete elionuroides Chiov. is included in a phylogenetic analysis (using ndhA intron, rpl32- trnL, rps16 intron, rps16-trnK, and ITS DNA markers) in order to test its relationships within the Cynodonteae with heavy sampling of species in the supersubtribe Gouiniodinae P.M.

4.9 Biological Resources
METROPOLITAN BAKERSFIELD METROPOLITAN BAKERSFIELD GENERAL PLAN UPDATE EIR 4.9 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The purpose of this Section is to identify existing biological resources within the Metropolitan Bakersfield area. In addition, this Section provides an assessment of biological resources (including sensitive species) impacts that may result from implementation of the General Plan Update references General Plan goals and policies, and, where necessary, recommends mitigation measures to reduce the significance of impacts. This Section describes the biological character of the site in terms of vegetation, flora, wildlife, and wildlife habitats and analyzes the biological significance of the site in view of Federal, State and local laws and policies. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The study area for the Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan Update encompasses 408 square miles of the southern portion of the San Joaquin Valley, the southernmost basin of the Central Valley of California. Prior to industrial, agricultural and urban development, the San Joaquin Valley comprised a variety of ecological communities. Runoff from the surrounding mountains fostered hardwood and riparian forests, marshes and grassland communities. Away from the influence of the mountain runoff, several distinct dryland communities of grasses and shrubs developed along gradients of rainfall, soil texture and soil alkalinity, providing a mosaic of habitats for the assemblage of endemic plants and animals. Agriculture, urban development and oil/gas extraction have resulted in many changes in the natural environment of the San Joaquin Valley. For example, lakes and wetlands in the delta area have been drained and diverted, native plant and animal species have been lost and a decrease in the acreage of native lands has occurred.

Erect, hairless stems, which are usually branching, range from less than 10 centimeters (4 inches) to more than 50 centimeters (20 inches) tall. They produce several flowering branches. The leaves are wavy-margined and most are in a basal rosette. Upper leaves are egg-shaped and clasp the stem, unlike the leaves at the base of the plant, California Jewelflower Habitat © 2009 Dr. Dean W. Taylor which are oblong. Maroon buds clustered at the tip Jepson Herbarium of the stem contrast with translucent, white flowers below. Seeds begin to germinate in the fall, and seedlings may continue to emerge for several months. The seedlings develop into rosettes of leaves during winter months, after which stems elongate and flower buds appear in February or March, blooming as late as May if rainfall and temperatures are favorable.

Greene's Tuctoria
Appendix A. Species Account Butte County Association of Governments Greene’s Tuctoria Greene’s Tuctoria (Tuctoria greenei) A.25.1 Legal and Other Status Greene’s tuctoria or Greene’s Orcutt grass (Tuctoria greenei) is listed as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) throughout its range and is listed as rare under the California ESA (DFG 2011). The California Native Plant Society (CNPS) includes Greene’s tuctoria in its California Rare Plant Rank 1B (formerly List 1B): Plants Rare, Threatened, or Endangered in California and Elsewhere (CNPS 2010). Critical habitat has been designated under ESA for Greene’s tuctoria, including one location in Butte County, on private property south of Chico along Highway 99 and 0.4 mile (0.64 kilometer [km]) south of the junction of Pentz Road (71 FR 7118). A.25.2 Species Distribution and Status A.25.2.1 Range and Status The current range of this species extends 258 miles (567 km) in Butte, Merced, Tehama, Shasta, and Glenn counties (62 FR 14338). Historically, the species was also reported from Fresno, Madera, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Tulare counties, but these populations are believed to have been extirpated (CNPS 2006). There are currently 25 extant reported occurrences for this species, 17 of which are in the Northeastern Sacramento Valley Vernal Pool Region, including 10 in the vicinity of Vina Plains in Tehama County and 7 in Butte County. The next largest concentration is in the Southern Sierra Foothills Vernal Pool Region, with seven extant occurrences in eastern Merced County. The other extant occurrence is in the Modoc Plateau Vernal Pool Region in Shasta County (CNDDB 2006).

Results will be incorporated into a multi-species recovery plan as well as restoration and management plans for the CPNA and other preserves. In terms of plant size and reproduction, the most successful populations of Caulanthus caqomicus were those on the CPNA, whereas Lembertia congdonii was equally successful on the CPNA and in the Kettleman Hills. Of the four Eriastrum hooveri sites studied, plants on the CPNA were smallest with poorest reproduction. Grazing effects were compared in three populations of L. congdonii, each of which was divided into grazed and ungrazed portions. Reproduction of L. congdonii was greater in grazed than in ungrazed areas of the Carrizo Plain and Kettleman Hills, whereas the reverse was found on the Elkhorn Plain.

GENERAL RARE PLANT SURVEY GUIDELINES Ellen A. Cypher
GENERAL RARE PLANT SURVEY GUIDELINES Ellen A. Cypher California State University, Stanislaus Endangered Species Recovery Program P.O. Box 9622, Bakersfield, CA 93389-9622 [email protected] Revised July 2002 All surveys for rare plants should be conducted in accordance with the standardized guidelines issued by the regulatory agencies (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1996, California Department of Fish and Game 2000) and the California Native Plant Society (2001). Some of the requirements specified in the standardized guidelines are that surveys must be conducted during the appropriate season and be floristic in nature. Thus, surveys should not target a single species but should aim to identify any and all rare species and rare plant communities in the area. The guidelines also provide information on selecting a qualified botanist and providing appropriate documentation of surveys. Additional considerations for conducting rare plant surveys are described by Nelson (1987). Permission of the landowner or land-management agency is required for both site access and plant collection. In addition, federal and/or state permits are necessary to collect specimens of plants listed as endangered, threatened, or rare. The species-specific methods presented below are intended as a supplement to the basic guidelines. They describe the conditions under which the potential for discovering each listed plant species in the survey area will be maximized. Multiple visits to a site may be necessary to ensure that survey conditions have been appropriate for all potentially-occurring rare plant species. Certain methods are common to all of the following species-specific survey guidelines; similar methods may be employed for species not covered herein.
