Inventory methods included data mining and field surveys. The data mining component consisted of bibliographic searches for reports documenting plant species presence and herbarium searches for specimens collected within EBLA. Field surveys, called “Botany Forays”, were conducted by experienced volunteers organized by the University of Washington to find and collect new plant specimens from EBLA. Initially, the reserve had a species list of 182 species, all of which had been verified by observation or field study. During the course of the inventory, data mining located 8 herbarium specimens verifying 7 species. During the four Botany Forays 305 specimens were collected, documenting 221 species. The vascular plant species list at the conclusion of the EBLA inventory included 374 species with 61% verified by voucher specimen and the remaining 39% verified by observation or scientific study. xi Acknowledgments Ronald Holmes and Lise Grace input all data into the NPSpecies database and conducted quality checks of all data. Allen McCoy developed the maps used in this report and Joe Oelfke assisted with the summary tables. Chris Chappell shared species observations that he had collected within EBLA. Dr. David Giblin of the University of Washington supervised the Botany Forays to collect vouchers specimens of species in EBLA. Many volunteers collected, identified, and mounted the herbarium specimens. Ben Legler (UW) and Peter Dunwiddie (The Nature Conservancy) assisted Dr. Giblin in leading the forays and they were accompanied by: Molly Bernstein, Pat Chiarelli, Katie Glew, Jesse Johansen, Joe Johansen, Don Knoke, Sharon Rodman, Leigh Smith, Jim Somers, Cindy Spurgeon, Jeff Walker, Barbara Williams, Peter Zika, and Susan Zwinger. xii Introduction Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve (EBLA) was established in 1978 to preserve and protect a rural community on Whidbey Island. The Reserve is located on central Whidbey Island, approximately 45 miles north of Seattle, at the extreme northern end of Puget Sound. To the east are the North Cascades; north and south are miles of islands, coves, and bays; southwest lie the Olympic Mountains (Figure 1). Whidbey Island varies from 1 to 10 miles in width and offers a rare combination of forests, prairies, and seascapes. A major force in the creation of this landscape was the Pleistocene glacial retreat about 13,000 years ago. The retreating ice left glacial moraines, gravel, sand, and clay. Natural forces continue to erode the beach bluffs and transport sand along the shores. The historical landscape of the reserve today looks much like it did a century ago – a mosaic of farms, forests, and century old buildings and homes. The site encompasses 25 square miles (17,400 acres) and includes federal, state, county, and private property. The National Park Service's primary mission is to conserve unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of the national park system for the enjoyment of this and future generations. In 1992, the National Park Service's (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring Program identified a list of candidate elements and processes for initial inventory in all natural resource parks, proposed the establishment of prototype inventory and monitoring parks, and outlined national implementation guidelines. The National Parks Omnibus Management Act of 1998 recognized the need for good scientific information to manage parks. The act mandated a "program of inventory and monitoring of National Park System resources to establish baseline information and to provide information on the long-term trends in the condition of National

In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks.

Mason-Gamer Abstract.—The Lonicera clade Caprifolium contains 25 species distributed around the Northern Hemisphere, including in the Mediterranean climates of California and Europe.∼ We sequenced the second intron of LFY to help resolve relationships within the clade where the internal transcribed spacer and chloroplast markers had previously failed to do so. Divergence Downloaded from time estimation and biogeographic analyses over the posterior distribution of dated trees suggest that a widespread an- cestor was distributed across the Northern Hemisphere some 7–17 million years ago. Asian species form a sister group to a clade in which the European species are sister to the North American species. We use climatic niche modeling and divergence time estimates to explore the evolution of climate variables in the group.
