  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Linking White‐Tailed Deer Density, Nutrition, and Vegetation in a Stochastic Environment
    Wildlife Monographs 202:1–63; 2019; DOI: 10.1002/wmon.1040 Linking White‐Tailed Deer Density, Nutrition, and Vegetation in a Stochastic Environment CHARLES A. DEYOUNG,1 Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, Texas A&M University–Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA TIMOTHY E. FULBRIGHT, Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, Texas A&M University–Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA DAVID G. HEWITT, Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, Texas A&M University–Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA DAVID B. WESTER, Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, Texas A&M University–Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA DON A. DRAEGER, Comanche Ranch, Carrizo Springs, TX 78834, USA ABSTRACT Density‐dependent behavior underpins white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) theory and man- agement application in North America, but strength or frequency of the phenomenon has varied across the geographic range of the species. The modifying effect of stochastic environments and poor‐quality habitats on density‐dependent behavior has been recognized for ungulate populations around the world, including white‐ tailed deer populations in South Texas, USA. Despite the importance of understanding mechanisms influencing density dependence, researchers have concentrated on demographic and morphological implications of deer density. Researchers have not focused on linking vegetation dynamics, nutrition, and deer dynamics. We con- ducted a series of designed experiments during 2004–2012 to determine how strongly white‐tailed deer density, vegetation composition, and deer nutrition (natural and supplemented) are linked in a semi‐arid environment where the coefficient of variation of annual precipitation exceeds 30%. We replicated our study on 2 sites with thornshrub vegetation in Dimmit County, Texas. During late 2003, we constructed 6 81‐ha enclosures sur- rounded by 2.4‐m-tall woven wire fence on each study site.

    TAXONOMY OF LANTANA SECT. LANTANA (VERBENACEAE): I. CORRECT APPLICATION OF LANTANA CAMARA AND ASSOCIATED NAMES Roger W. Sanders Botanical Research Institute of Texas 509 Pecan Street Fort Worth, Texas 76102-4060, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT The previous lectotypification of Lantana camara L. is evaluated by examination of characters of the lectotype, review of other original material, and documentation of current usage of the name. The current usage is analyzed by surveying pertinent literature and by sampling specimens for an- notations between 1753 and the present in relation to critical characters of those specimens. Current usage of L. camara includes a widely cultivated and naturalized cultigen species of hybrid origin that is taxonomically distinct from L. camara. To determine the correct name of the cultigen, all names in Lantana sect. Lantana are reviewed, typified if necessary and possible, and taxonomically disposed. No available name applies to the cultigen, which is newly described as Lantana strigocamara R.W. Sanders. Origin of the named hybrids in the L. camara complex is hypothesized. Two new com- binations are made, Lantana camara subsp. aculeata (L.) R.W. Sanders and Lantana nivea Vent. subsp. mutabilis (W.J. Hook.) R.W. Sanders. Nineteen lectotypifications and seven epitypifications are made. RESUMEN La lectotipificación previa de Lantana camara L. se evalúa mediante examen de los caracteres del lectotipo, revisión de otro material original, y documentación del uso actual del nombre. El uso ac- tual se analizó revisando la bibliografía adecuada y por muestreo de especimenes entre 1753 y el presente por comentarios en relación a caracteres críticos de esos especimenes.

    Phylogeny and biogeography of Neotropical flowering plant tribe Citharexyleae (Verbenaceae) Laura A. Frost A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Richard Olmstead, Chair Caroline Strömberg John Klicka Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Biology ©Copyright 2018 Laura A. Frost University of Washington Abstract Phylogeny and biogeography of Neotropical flowering plant tribe Citharexyleae (Verbenaceae) Laura A. Frost Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Richard Olmstead Biology The New World tropics, or Neotropics, located within tropical latitudes of North and South America, are one of the most diverse ecoregion in the world. However, this diversity is poorly understood in terms of described biodiversity—species numbers are uncertain and collection records are depauperate for many groups distributed in remote locations or dense forest—and patterns of evolution contributing to high diversity—factors underlying speciation in lineages are not well understood. A molecular phylogenetic and systematic study of the Neotropical flowering plant tribe Citharexyleae in the Verbena family (Verbenaceae), which also originated and diversified primarily in the Neotropics, was undertaken in order to describe diversity and understand patterns of evolution in an understudied Neotropical lineage. Chapter 1 comprises a systematic study of tribe Citharexyleae, which describes relationships between the three genera in the tribe (Baillonia (1 species), Citharexylum (ca. 70 species), and Rehdera (2 species)) as well as relationships within Citharexylum, the largest genus. Baillonia is included in Citharexylum and Rehdera is retained distinct. A subgeneric classification including six subgenera system is proposed for Citharexylum, and morphological characters associated with each major clade described.

  • A Vascular Plant Survey for Big Thicket National Preserve
    DRAFT FINAL REPORT Big Thicket National Preserve National Park Service Beaumont, TX A Vascular Plant Survey for Big Thicket National Preserve Principal Investigator: P.A. Harcombe Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Rice University Houston, TX 77005 National Park Service Cooperative Agreement CA14001004 May 29, 2007 - 1 - - 2 - INTRODUCTION The goal of the project was to produce verified inventories of vascular plant species (including ferns and fern allies) by unit in the Big Thicket National Preserve (BTNP), a part of the National Park System located in southeastern Texas in Hardin, Tyler, Polk, Liberty, Jefferson, Orange and Jasper counties. Collection efforts focused on the major units (Big Sandy, Hickory Creek, Turkey Creek, Beech Creek, Lance Rosier, Neches Bottom/Jack Gore Baygall, Beaumont). Owing to time constraints collecting in Loblolly Unit and Menard Creek was minimal, and no new collecting was done in the other corridor units (Pine Island Bayou, Upper Neches, and Lower Neches). Between June 2001 and December 2006, a database of 8095 specimen records was compiled. The database contains 1384 valid names representing 1264 distinct taxa in 536 genera and 146 families . From the database, final species and specimen tables were generated. A total of 7198 specimens were delivered to Dale Kruse, Curator, Tracey Herbarium at Texas A&M University (TAES) on April 6, 2007. In this report we describe methods used in constructing the database, the collectors, and the unit-level collection efforts. A species-by-unit table is presented; collection results are compared with Watson (1982), and there is an examination of variation in species richness among units.
