Rose1 and Erin A. Dreelin2, Department of Biological Sciences, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia 23529-0266 ABSTRACT The objectives of our study were to determine the age of maturity, litter size, and the timing of the breeding season of marsh rice rats (Oryzomys palustris) of coastal Virginia. From May 1995 to May 1996, monthly samples of rice rats were live-trapped in two coastal tidal marshes of eastern Virginia, and then necropsied. Sexual maturity was attained at 30-40 g for both sexes. Mean litter size of 4.63 (n = 16) did not differ among months or in mass or parity classes. Data from two other studies conducted in the same county, one of them contemporaneous, also were examined. Based on necropsy, rice rats bred from March to October; breeding did not occur in December-February. By contrast, rice rats observed during monthly trapping on nearby live-trap grids were judged, using external indicators, to be breeding year-round except January. Compared to internal examinations, external indicators of reproductive condition were not reliable for either sex in predicting breeding status in the marsh rice rat.

Sedges have edges, rushes are round, grasses have joints all the way to the ground USUALLY! Some sedges don’t have obvious edges Rushes are always round but so are many grasses and sedges Grass nodes or joints are not always easy to find Diminutive parts and superficial similarities make graminoid identification difficult… Does it really matter? A grass, a sedge or a rush? Take time and work through each of these questions.

They produce heavily branched rhizomes that aid in formation of large colonies. Culms measure approximately 1/8 inch at sheath tips. Flowering occurs in summer with fruiting stretching into the late summer and fall. Plants are found in and along the edges of swamps, marshes, and shallow bodies of water. They can also live in any area with frequently moist soils. The species Juncus effuses is quite complex taxonomically. Many varieties have been recognized within the species. Juncus effusus var. effusus is a shorter variety of the southeastern US while Juncus effusus var. solutus is taller.
