The date on which the report was created is in the report footer. Please note that the quantity and quality of data collected by the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves is dependent on the research and observations of many individuals and organizations. In most cases, this information is not the result of comprehensive or site-specific field surveys; many natural areas in Kentucky have never been thoroughly surveyed, and new species of plants and animals are still being discovered. For these reasons, the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves cannot provide a definitive statement on the presence, absence, or condition of biological elements in any part of Kentucky. Heritage reports summarize the existing information known to the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves at the time this report was generated. It should not be regarded as a final statement on the elements being considered, nor should it be substituted for on-site surveys required for environmental assessments. The Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves appreciates the submission of any endangered species data for Kentucky from field observations. For information on data reporting or other data services provided by the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves, please contact the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves at: Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves 300 Sower Boulevard – 4th Floor Frankfort, KY 40601 eec.ky.gov/Nature-Preserves iv Endangered, Threatened, and Special Concern Plants, Animals, and Natural Communities of Kentucky Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves USESA State State Global Scientific Name Common Name Status Status Rank Rank Lichens Phaeophyscia leana Lea's Bog Lichen E S1?

  • Imports of Ornamental Crayfish
    Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems (2015) 416, 04 http://www.kmae-journal.org c ONEMA, 2015 DOI: 10.1051/kmae/2014040 Imports of ornamental crayfish: the first decade from the Czech Republic’s perspective J. Patoka(1),L.Kalous(1),, O. Kopecký(1) Received October 6, 2014 Revised December 18, 2014 Accepted December 21, 2014 ABSTRACT Key-words: The import of aquarium animals has been increasing worldwide in recent pet trade, years. Despite its contribution to world trade and the economy, this trade aquarium, also comprises one of the main pathways for the introduction of non- crustaceans, indigenous animals. In the past decade, crayfish has become a popular non-indigenous pet as well as a potential threat to the environment upon its escape or species, release. Since the Czech Republic is one of the world’s leading importer, price exporter, and producer of aquatic ornamental animals, we prepared a de- tailed analysis of crayfish imports. The present paper provides a complete list of countries supplying ornamental crayfish and examines trends of their prices and imported quantities during the past decade (2003–2012). Indonesia has been identified as the leading supplier in recent years. The annual average price of imported crayfish has varied over the evaluated period within the range of c0.76–4.72 per individual and it is rising annu- ally by c0.15. The quantity of live crayfish imported for aquarium purposes has not been affected significantly by the price per individual and it has grown rapidly. Therefore a constant monitoring of this pet trade sector is strongly recommended for the future.

  • Recovery Plan for Liatris Helleri Heller’S Blazing Star
    Recovery Plan for Liatris helleri Heller’s Blazing Star U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Atlanta, Georgia RECOVERY PLAN for Liatris helleri (Heller’s Blazing Star) Original Approved: May 1, 1989 Original Prepared by: Nora Murdock and Robert D. Sutter FIRST REVISION Prepared by Nora Murdock Asheville Field Office U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Asheville, North Carolina for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Southeast Region Atlanta, Georgia Approved: Regional Director, U S Fish’and Wildlife Service Date:______ Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions that are believed to be required to recover andlor protect listed species. Plans published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) are sometimes prepared with the assistance ofrecovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and other affected and interested parties. Plans are reviewed by the public and submitted to additional peer review before they are adopted by the Service. Objectives of the plan 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. Recovery plans do not obligate other parties to undertake specific tasks and may not represent the views or the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in developing the plan, other than the Service. Recovery plans represent the official position ofthe Service only after they have been signed by the Director or Regional Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks. By approving this recovery plan, the Regional Director certifies that the data used in its development represent the best scientific and commercial information available at the time it was written.

  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.

Our program was enriched with sites, field trip leaders, and participants from Tennessee. The weather was gorgeous and the wildflowers on time. Facilities for the social and banquet were excellent—I loved the towing museum and train station venues. This year we had three students receiving scholarships to attend the pilgrimage: Ashley DeSensi from Columbus State, Bridget Piatt from Gordon State, and Loy Xingwen from Emory. If you see any of these students on future field trips, be sure to welcome them. They were joined by Brandi Griffin from Valdosta State University, who was a scholarship recipient in 2015 and who has attended every pilgrimage and several field trips since. It is encouraging to see students continuing to participate. These scholarships are a great way to recruit young professionals BotSoc News into BotSoc. If you know students taking botany-type courses, please encourage is published seven times a year them to apply for scholarships to attend the pilgrimage.
