  • The Natural World That I Seek out in the Desert Regions of Baja California
    The natural world that I seek out in the desert regions of Baja California and southern California provides me with scientific adventure, excitement towards botany, respect for nature, and overall feelings of peace and purpose. Jon P. Rebman, Ph.D. has been the Mary and Dallas Clark Endowed Chair/Curator of Botany at the San Diego Natural History Museum (SDNHM) since 1996. He has a Ph.D. in Botany (plant taxonomy), M.S. in Biology (floristics) and B.S. in Biology. Dr. Rebman is a plant taxonomist and conducts extensive floristic research in Baja California and in San Diego and Imperial Counties. He has over 15 years of experience in the floristics of San Diego and Imperial Counties and 21 years experience studying the plants of the Baja California peninsula. He leads various field classes and botanical expeditions each year and is actively naming new plant species from our region. His primary research interests have centered on the systematics of the Cactus family in Baja California, especially the genera Cylindropuntia (chollas) and Opuntia (prickly-pears). However, Dr. Rebman also does a lot of general floristic research and he co- published the most recent edition of the Checklist of the Vascular Plants of San Diego County. He has over 22 years of field experience with surveying and documenting plants including rare and endangered species. As a field botanist, he is a very active collector of scientific specimens with his personal collections numbering over 22,500. Since 1996, he has been providing plant specimen identification/verification for various biological consulting companies on contracts dealing with plant inventory projects and environmental assessments throughout southern California.

New names noted after the issue for the relevant year has gone to press are included in later issues. Specialist periodical literature is scanned in full (as available at the libraries at ZSS and Z or received by the compilers). Also included is information supplied to the compilers direct.

  • Lake Havasu City Recommended Landscaping Plant List
    Lake Havasu City Recommended Landscaping Plant List Lake Havasu City Recommended Landscaping Plant List Disclaimer Lake Havasu City has revised the recommended landscaping plant list. This new list consists of plants that can be adapted to desert environments in the Southwestern United States. This list only contains water conscious species classified as having very low, low, and low-medium water use requirements. Species that are classified as having medium or higher water use requirements were not permitted on this list. Such water use classification is determined by the type of plant, its average size, and its water requirements compared to other plants. For example, a large tree may be classified as having low water use requirements if it requires a low amount of water compared to most other large trees. This list is not intended to restrict what plants residents choose to plant in their yards, and this list may include plant species that may not survive or prosper in certain desert microclimates such as those with lower elevations or higher temperatures. In addition, this list is not intended to be a list of the only plants allowed in the region, nor is it intended to be an exhaustive list of all desert-appropriate plants capable of surviving in the region. This list was created with the intention to help residents, businesses, and landscapers make informed decisions on which plants to landscape that are water conscious and appropriate for specific environmental conditions. Lake Havasu City does not require the use of any or all plants found on this list. List Characteristics This list is divided between trees, shrubs, groundcovers, vines, succulents and perennials.

Listed as the Gooseberry allotment by the Manti-La Sal National Forest (MLSNF), it has had a different name since 2012: White Mesa Cultural and Conservation Area (WMCCA), with reference to the nearby Ute Mountain Ute Tribe town of White Mesa. It also has a different man- agement situation: No cattle grazing, at least until 2021. Under a Memo of Under- Meadow diversity at work: Hesperostipa co- standing between the Ute Mountain Ute mata and Koeleria macrantha...and one Tribe, Grand Canyon Trust, and the Forest sedge. Photo by Mary O'Brien. Service, this is the one area in the entire 1.2-million acre MLSNF that is being permitted to be free of livestock grazing. The cattle-free status of WMCCA was one of three reasons Sue Smith, a retired comput- er scientist and high school science teacher living in Prescott, Arizona, decided to study its native grasses for a Utah State University masters degree in Natural Resource Management.

  • Bakersfield Cactus (Opuntia Basilaris Var. Treleasei)
    DRAFT March 2012 PLANTS Bakersfield Cactus (Opuntia basilaris var. treleasei) Bakersfield cactus (Opuntia basilaris var. treleasei) Legal Status State: Endangered, S2.11 California Rare Plant Rank: 1B.12 Federal: Endangered, U.S. Forest Service Sensitive Critical Habitat: N/A Photo courtesy of Neal Kramer. Recovery Planning: Recovery Plan for Upland Species of the San Joaquin Valley, California (USFWS 1998) Taxonomy Bakersfield cactus (Opuntia basilaris var. treleasei) is a perennial stem succulent in the cactus family (Cactaceae) (Jepson Flora Project 2011; CNPS 2011). Bakersfield cactus was originally published as Opuntia treleasei by J.M. Coulter in 1896 (IPNI 2011). Bakersfield cactus was listed as Opuntia treleasei in the Federal Register notice announcing the endangered status of the species (55 FR 29361–29370). Although some experts still consider Bakersfield cactus to be a full species, more recently, Bakersfield cactus is treated as Opuntia basilaris var. treleasei (Jepson Flora Project 2011), and the USFWS Recovery Plan for Upland Species of the San Joaquin Valley, California also treats Bakersfield cactus as O. basilaris var. treleasei (USFWS 1998). Therefore, consideration by some experts of Bakersfield cactus as a full species is unlikely to influence its legal or conservation status. Bakersfield cactus is low growing with stem segments approximately 9 to 20 centimeters (3.5 to 7.9 inches) long (USFWS 2011; Jepson Flora Project 2011). A full physical description of the species can be found in the Jepson eFlora (Jepson Flora Project 2011). 1 S2: Imperiled; X.1: Very threatened. 2 1B: Rare, threatened, or endangered in California and elsewhere; X.1: Seriously threatened in California.
