Imperforate tracheary elements may be tracheids, fiber-tracheids, or libriform fibers. Rays may be uniseriate only, multiseriate only, or absent. Roots of some species (and sterns of a few of those same genera) have vascular tissue produced by successive cambia. The diversity in wood anatomy character states shows a range from primitive to specialized so great that origin close to one of the more specialized families of Cheno podiales, such as Chenopodiaceae or Amaranthaceae, is unlikely. Caryophyllaceae probably branched from the ordinal clade near the clade's base, as cladistic evidence suggests. Raylessness and abrupt onset of multiseriate rays may indicate woodiness in the family is secondary. Successive cambia might also be a subsidiary indicator of secondary woodiness in Caryophyllaceae (although not necessarily dicotyledons at large). -

FULL ACCOUNT FOR: Sus scrofa Sus scrofa System: Terrestrial Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Animalia Chordata Mammalia Artiodactyla Suidae Common name pig (English), Wildschwein (German), razorback (English), te poaka (Maori), kuhukuhu (Maori), poretere (Maori), petapeta (Maori), kune- kune (Maori, New Zealand) Synonym Similar species Summary Sus scrofa (feral pigs) are escaped or released domestic animals which have been introduced to many parts of the world. They damage crops, stock and property, and transmit many diseases such as Leptospirosis and Foot and Mouth disease. Rooting pigs dig up large areas of native vegetation and spread weeds, disrupting ecological processes such as succession and species composition. Sus scrofa are omnivorous and their diet can include juvenile land tortoises, sea turtles, sea birds, endemic reptiles and macro- invertebrates. Management of Sus scrofa is complicated by the fact that complete eradication is often not acceptable to communities that value feral pigs for hunting and food. view this species on IUCN Red List Global Invasive Species Database (GISD) 2021. Species profile Sus scrofa. Available Pag. 1 from: http://193.206.192.138/gisd/species.php?sc=73 [Accessed 29 September 2021] FULL ACCOUNT FOR: Sus scrofa Species Description Pigs are large omnivorous mammals with powerful bodies and coarse hairy coats. Their thick necks, wedge-shaped heads and mobile snouts are used in feeding to uproot the ground and find prey or plant material. Feral pigs are easily distinguished from domestic pigs via a smaller leaner and more muscular stature, shorter hind quarters, longer snouts and tusks. Older boars usually develop a thick keratinous shield over their shoulders, which provides some protection during fights with other boars. -

Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sometimes prepared with the assistance ofrecovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Costs indicated for task implementation and/or time for achievement ofrecovery are only estimates and are subject to change.

Final IMPLEMENTATION PLAN OAHU TRAINING AREAS
Final IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR OAHU TRAINING AREAS: Schofield Barracks Military Reservation, Schofield Barracks East Range, Kawailoa Training Area, Kahuku Training Area, and Dillingham Military Reservation October 2008 Prepared by: United States Army Garrison, Hawaii Directorate of Public Works Environmental Division Schofield Barracks, Hawaii 96857 i Final Oahu Implementation Plan 2008 Executive Summary USFWS Consultation and the Oahu Implementation Plan The Oahu Implementation Plan (OIP) was prepared to guide the U.S. Army Garrison Hawaii (Army) in the ongoing conservation and stabilization efforts for 23 endangered plant species, several endangered snail species, and one endangered bird species potentially affected by military training at all of the Army training installations on Oahu (except Makua). In 2003, the Army initiated formal Section 7 consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) by providing a Biological Assessment (BA) for military training at Schofield Barracks Military Reservation (SBMR), Kahuku Training Area (KTA), Kawailoa Training Area (KLOA), Schofield Barracks East Range (SBER), South Range Acquisition Area (SRAA), and Dillingham Military Reservation (DMR). In October 2003, the USFWS issued a non jeopardy Biological Opinion (BO) with the condition that the Army prepare an Implementation Plan outlining the measures necessary to stabilize the listed species on these installations with less than three stable populations and/or more than 50 percent of known individuals occurring within the action area (AA). The consultation utilized an AA that encompasses all land potentially affected by military training (i.e. fire, invasive species introductions, etc.) and thus includes a small area outside the installation boundaries. Pursuant to the requirements of the 2003 BO, the Army prepared a draft OIP and submitted it to the USFWS in June 2005. -
