  • Ozark Lichens
    PRELIMINARY DRAFT: OZARK LICHENS Enumerating the lichens of the Ozark Highlands of Arkansas, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma Prepared for the 14 th Tuckerman Lichen Workshop Eureka Springs, Arkansas October 2005 Corrected printing November 2005 Richard C. Harris New York Botanical Garden Douglas Ladd The Nature Conservancy Supported by the National Science Foundation grant 0206023 INTRODUCTION Well known as a biologically unique region North America, the Ozarks were long neglected from a lichenological standpoint. Systematic surveys and collecting work were initiated in the Missouri portion of the Ozarks in the early1980's, and were subsequently expanded to encompass the entire Ozark ecoregion, including small portions of Kansas and Illinois, and significant portions of Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. These efforts have revealed a surprisingly rich diversity of lichens in the region, including a significant number of undescribed taxa. Despite considerable field work in every county in the region, new records continue to be found at a distressing rate, and we cannot yet state the total diversity of Ozark lichen biota. This draft is a tentative first attempt to provide a comprehensive treatment of the lichens of the Ozarks. Included here are general keys, brief synopses of genera, key to species within each genus with more than one Ozark taxon, and summaries of the Ozark distribution and ecology of each species, sometimes accompanied by more detailed taxonomic descriptions and other comments. As will be immediately evident to the reader, this draft is being rushed into preliminary distribution to be available for testing at the 2005 Tuckerman Lichen Workshop in the Ozarks. Hence a few disclaimers are stressed: this is an uneven treatment, in that some genera have been carefully studied, with detailed species descriptions and ecological profiles, while other groups are still problematical, with more cursory and provisional treatments.

    Natural Resources Conservation Service Ecological site F116CY005MO Dry Igneous Protected Backslope Woodland Last updated: 9/24/2020 Accessed: 09/29/2021 General information Provisional. A provisional ecological site description has undergone quality control and quality assurance review. It contains a working state and transition model and enough information to identify the ecological site. Figure 1. Mapped extent Areas shown in blue indicate the maximum mapped extent of this ecological site. Other ecological sites likely occur within the highlighted areas. It is also possible for this ecological site to occur outside of highlighted areas if detailed soil survey has not been completed or recently updated. MLRA notes Major Land Resource Area (MLRA): 116C–St. Francois Knobs and Basins The St Francois Knobs and Basins is the structural center of the Ozark Dome. Elevation ranges from about 450 feet along the rivers in the southern part of the area, to 1,772 feet on the summit of Taum Sauk Mountain, the highest point in Missouri. Prominent features of this MLRA are the Precambrian igneous knobs and hills that rise conspicuously to various elevations, interspersed with smooth-floored basins and valleys overlying dolomite and sandstone. Ecological Sites defined for this MLRA are associated with the igneous parent materials, either in knob or basin positions. Areas influenced primarily by dolomite and/or sandstone are included in ecological sites within MLRA 116A (Ozark Highlands). Classification relationships Terrestrial Natural Community Type (Nelson, 2010): The reference state for this ecological site is most similar to a Dry-Mesic Igneous Woodland. Missouri Department of Conservation Forest and Woodland Communities (Missouri Department of Conservation, 2006): The reference state for this ecological site is most similar to a Mixed Oak Woodland.

Extent: 23 processed cubic feet, 14 unprocessed Physical Description: Paper Location: MSA Stacks ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Alternative Formats: Digital (only some) Access Restrictions: None Publication Restrictions: Copyright is in the public domain. Items reproduced for publication should carry the credit line: Courtesy of the Missouri State Archives. Preferred Citation: [Item description], [date]. Location: [Shelf Box Folder (and page, if applicable)]. Series. RG 103 Department of Conservation. Missouri State Archives, Jefferson City. Acquisition Information: Accession #2005-0082 (land acquisition files only) Processing Information: by EMW, completed 04/30/2013 HISTORICAL NOTES The voters of Missouri passed Constitutional Amendment No. 4 by initiative petition in November 1936 that created the Missouri Conservation Commission and the Department of Conservation (MDC). The Conservation Commission is a four-person board appointed by the Governor of Missouri. The Commission, in turn, appoints a director of the MDC. The MDC is run solely by monies gathered through sales of hunting, fishing, trapping, etc. licenses and a 1/8th of 1% sales tax. Because the Department is not funded by the State through the State budget, it is referred to as a “non-political” organization. Prior to 1936, the State of Missouri had a Game and Fish Commission. See the timeline below. Records in this collection do include documents prior to 1936. Timeline: 04/17/1877 The Legislature passes a law creating a Fish Commission whose sole duty it is to stock as of 10/23/2018 MISSOURI DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION, RG103 Missouri streams and lakes with “cheap and nutritious” fish to serve as food.
