NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms. Contributions go to the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Fund, which provides a portion of the operating budget for the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program. NHESP protects rare species through biological inventory, -

European Cotoneaster Cotoneaster integerrimus Height: 10 feet Spread: 12 feet Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 2b Description: European Cotoneaster fruit A large spreading shrub valued primarily for its showy Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder cherry red fruit in fall and into early winter; white flowers in spring, a somewhat loosely arching habit of growth; can be grown in masses or as a solitary with adequate room Ornamental Features European Cotoneaster has clusters of pink flowers along the branches in mid spring. It has dark green foliage throughout the season. The oval leaves turn an outstanding brick red in the fall. It produces red berries from late summer to late fall. Landscape Attributes European Cotoneaster is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with a shapely form and gracefully arching branches. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and is best European Cotoneaster pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant passed. Gardeners should be aware of the following Finder characteristic(s) that may warrant special consideration; - Disease European Cotoneaster is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - Hedges/Screening - General Garden Use 2503-211 Avenue N.E. Edmonton, AB T5Y 6P8 phone: 780-472-6260 • web: www.arrowheadnurseries.com Planting & Growing European Cotoneaster will grow to be about 10 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 12 feet.

Sardar Department of Biology, College of Education, University of Salahaddin-Erbil, Erbil, Iraq Abstract Cephalaria hirsute Stapf is a new plant record within Dipsacaceae family in Iraq, from Halgurd mountain. The collected specimens from the area were with different characteristics: Stem densely retrorse pilose below, sparsely pilose above; Leaves simple or lyrate, 1-3 pairs of segments, adpressed pilose; peduncle costate, sparsely pilose; Involucral bracts broadly ovate, apex and base obtuse, pubescent and pilose, receptacular bracts narrowly obovate-oblong, oblong, apex acuminate, base obtuse; Outer calyx or involucel with 4 long and 4 short teeth. Identification and morphological study have been done, these illustrated by graphs. Pollens character have been clarifiedlike shapes, colors, sizes, surface ornamentation and numbers. As well as, some features of the leaf and stem anatomy have been examined.

We examined the possible antigenotoxic/genotoxic properties of methanolic extract of H. olympicum subsp. olympicum (HOE) on human lymphocytes by employing sister chromatid exchange, micronucleus and comet assay and analyzed its chemical composition by GCxGC-TOF/MS. The anti-growth activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines was assessed by using the ATP viability assay. Cell death mode was investigated with fluorescence staining and ELISA assays. The major components of the flower and trunk were determined as eicosane, heptacosane, 2-propen-1-ol, hexahydrofarnesyl acetone and α-muurolene. HOE caused significant DNA damage at selected doses (250–750 µg/ml) while chromosomal damage was observed at higher concentrations (500 and 750 µg/ml). HOE demonstrated anti-growth activity in a dose-dependent manner between 3.13–100 µg/ml. -
Ecohydrological Controls on Temperate Wetland Shrub Dynamics
Ecohydrological Controls on Temperate Wetland Shrub Dynamics by Hannah Elizabeth Ormshaw A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Geography University of Toronto © Copyright by Hannah Elizabeth Ormshaw 2014 Ecohydrological Controls on Temperate Wetland Shrub Growth and Stomatal Conductance Hannah Elizabeth Ormshaw Master of Science Geography University of Toronto 2014 Abstract In ecohydrology, soil moisture is the fundamental component to describe the underlying hydrologic regime at a site. Soil moisture, along with air temperature, vapour pressure deficit, and solar irradiance are significant controlling factors in plant growth and the physiological function of stomatal conductance (gs). To observe the ecohydrological controls on wetland shrub growth and physiology, an experimental plot within a post- agricultural field was established to manipulate soil moisture availability. Growth was measured as growing season increases in biomass under different levels of wetness, while gs was measured in-situ and correlated to soil moisture and site weather measurements using a logistic upper-quantile, non-linear regression approach. Two modelling techniques – a multiple linear regression model, and an adapted Jarvis-type phenomenological model – were used to illustrate growing season trends in gs. The results of this study describe plant tolerance to moisture as well as seasonal water demands, which is currently unknown for wetland shrub species. ii Acknowledgments I would like to express my deep gratitude to Dr. Tim P. Duval, my research supervisor, for his invaluable guidance, encouragement, and feedback throughout my research and analysis. His patience, superb teaching ability, and his attitude toward science was essential to my learning, and made this thesis possible. -

Checklist Flora of the Former Carden Township, City of Kawartha Lakes, on 2016
Hairy Beardtongue (Penstemon hirsutus) Checklist Flora of the Former Carden Township, City of Kawartha Lakes, ON 2016 Compiled by Dale Leadbeater and Anne Barbour © 2016 Leadbeater and Barbour All Rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system or database, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, without written permission of the authors. Produced with financial assistance from The Couchiching Conservancy. The City of Kawartha Lakes Flora Project is sponsored by the Kawartha Field Naturalists based in Fenelon Falls, Ontario. In 2008, information about plants in CKL was scattered and scarce. At the urging of Michael Oldham, Biologist at the Natural Heritage Information Centre at the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Dale Leadbeater and Anne Barbour formed a committee with goals to: • Generate a list of species found in CKL and their distribution, vouchered by specimens to be housed at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, making them available for future study by the scientific community; • Improve understanding of natural heritage systems in the CKL; • Provide insight into changes in the local plant communities as a result of pressures from introduced species, climate change and population growth; and, • Publish the findings of the project . Over eight years, more than 200 volunteers and landowners collected almost 2000 voucher specimens, with the permission of landowners. Over 10,000 observations and literature records have been databased. The project has documented 150 new species of which 60 are introduced, 90 are native and one species that had never been reported in Ontario to date.
