  • Seven Plants in Southern U.S. Proposed for Listing
    December 1984 Vol. IX No. 12 Department of interior. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Technical Bulletin Endangered Species Program, Washington, D.C. 20240 Seven Plants in Southern U.S. Proposed for Listing Seven plants occurring in the south- ern United States were proposed by the Service during Novennber for listing as Endangered and Threatened species. These plants all face the possibility of extinction, but may benefit from protec- tion authorized by the Endangered Spe- cies Act. Pityopsis ruthii Pityopsis ruthii, a plant endemic to Polk County, Tennessee, was first col- lected In the late 1800s by Albert Ruth, a Knoxville botanist, near the Hlwassee River. Commonly referred to as Ruth's golden aster, this plant is a fibrous- rooted perennial that grows only in the soil-filled cracks of phyllite boulders in and adjacent to the Ocoee and Hlwas- see Rivers. Its stems range from one to three decimeters tall and bear long nar- row leaves covered with silvery hairs. Yellow flowers appear in a paniculate Inflorescence in late August and Sep- tember, and fruits develop a few weeks after the flowers fade. Pityopsis ruthii is being threatened by water quality degradation, toxic chemi- cal spills, and water flow regime manip- ulations. The two known populations of this species occur on short reaches of Pityopsis ruthii (Ruth's golden aster) rivers In which water regimes are con- trolled by upstream dams operated by river result in frequent high flow condi- the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). tions that naturally would occur only a Natural water flows in the Hlwassee few times per year.

  • STATUS of the NATIVE FLOWERING PLANTS of the HAWAIIAN ISLANDS Warren L
    2. STATUS OF THE NATIVE FLOWERING PLANTS OF THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS Warren L. Wagner Derral R. Herbst and Rylan S.N. Yee ABSTRACT Estimates of the total number of native Hawaiian plants are widely divergent because of differences in species concepts; our evaluation suggests 1,200-1,300 native species. Hawaifi has the highest number of can- didate threatened and endangered plants for the United States (31%), with approximately 10% of the native flowering plants already extinct. Although a modern taxonomic review of the Hawaiian flora will reduce the number of taxa considered valid, roughly 50% of the flora will still be considered threatened or endan- gered. Currently 11 Hawaiian plants are listed as en- dangered, one has been proposed as endangered, and the documentation for an additional 9 is currently under review. An evaluation comparing the number of candidate taxa on each island and in each major ecological zone shows that the islands with the highest percentages of candidate taxa are O'ahu (27.3%), followed by Hawai'i (18.3%), Maui (16.8%), and Kauafi (14%). The low num- bers on islands such as Ni*ihau (1.5%) and Kaho'olawe (0.7%) are apparently partly a reflection of the loss of most of the native vegetation prior to study of these islands, and partly because of lower physio- graphic diversity. The ecological zones most severely degraded are mixed mesophytic forest, which harbors nearly 33% of the total candidate taxa, and low eleva- tion rain forest with 24%. Not indicated by this anal- ysis is the severe degradation of lowland vegetation (with 14% of total candidate taxa) and coastal vegeta- tion (with 9.5%) that occurred prior to their scientif- ic study.
