"National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment. -

Insects of Macquarie Island. Introduction1
Pacific Insects 4 (4) : 905-915 December, 15, 1962 INSECTS OF MACQUARIE ISLAND. INTRODUCTION1 By J. Linsley Gressitt BISHOP MUSEUM, HONOLULU Abstract: Collections of land arthropods were made on Macquarie Island by J. L. Gres sitt and J. H. Calaby, 4-10 December 1960, and by Keith Watson, December 1960-Decem- ber 1961. This paper is a brief discussion of the geography and environment of Macquarie, introductory to the systematic papers describing the fauna. Watson, of the Australian Na tional Antarctic Research Expeditions, will later publish his general ecological studies, when the species are all identified. INTRODUCTION This paper is a brief description of the geography and environment of Macquarie Is land, as related to land arthropods. It is presented by way of introduction to the series of reports by various specialists on the land arthropod fauna of the island. The bulk of these reports immediately follow this article. (One Macquarie mite is discussed in the third of the preceding articles by Wallwork on Antarctic mites, and another is mentioned in his second article.) Others will appear in later issues, when they are completed. After publication of the bulk of these taxonomic reports, Keith Watson will publish his general report on the land arthropod fauna of Macquarie, incorporating his ecological studies on the fauna. Through the kindness of Mr. P. G. Law, Director of the Antarctic Division, Australian Department of External Affairs, I was permitted to join the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition for the annual resupply trip to Macquarie Island in early December 1960. The operation, supported by the chartered Danish ice-breaker Magga Dan, was car ried on at Macquarie from 4th to lOth December. -

A CHECKLIST OF THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF THE REDWOOD NATIONAL & STATE PARKS James P. Smith, Jr. Professor Emeritus of Botany Department of Biological Sciences Humboldt State Univerity Arcata, California 14 September 2018 The Redwood National and State Parks are located in Del Norte and Humboldt counties in coastal northwestern California. The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. 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. -
Genetic Modification of Wetland Grasses for Phytoremediation
Genetic Modification of Wetland Grasses for Phytoremediation Miha´ly Czako´ a, Xianzhong Fengb, Yuke Heb, Dali Lianga, and La´szlo´ Ma´rtona,* a Department of Biological Sciences, University of South Carolina, 700 Sumter St, Columbia, SC 29208, USA.

Naturforsch. 60c, 285Ð291 (2005) Wetland grasses and grass-like monocots are very important natural remediators of pollu- tants. Their genetic improvement is an important task because introduction of key transgenes can dramatically improve their remediation potential. Tissue culture is prerequisite for ge- netic manipulation, and methods are reported here for in vitro culture and micropropagation of a number of wetland plants of various ecological requirements such as salt marsh, brackish water, riverbanks, and various zones of lakes and ponds, and bogs. The monocots represent numerous genera in various families such as Poaceae, Cyperaceae, Juncaceae, and Typhaceae. The reported species are in various stages of micropropagation and Arundo donax is scaled for mass propagation for selecting elite lines for pytoremediation. Transfer of key genes for mercury phytoremediation into the salt marsh cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora) is also reported here. All but one transgenic lines contained both the organomer- curial lyase (merB) and mercuric reductase (merA) sequences showing that co-introduction into Spartina of two genes from separate Agrobacterium strains is possible. Key words: Cell Culture, Mercury, Phytoremediation, Spartina alterniflora Introduction carry out industrial processes such as phytoreme- “Phytoremediation is the use of plants to par- diation, such grass-like plants are important. -

Introduction Rushes (family Juncaceae) are a common component of New Zealand wetland vegetation and species within this family appear very similar. With over 50 species, Juncus are the largest component of the New Zealand rushes and are notoriously difficult for amateurs and professionals alike to identify to species level. This key and accompanying factsheets have been developed to enable users with a diverse range of botanical expertise to identify Juncus to species level. The best time for collection, survey or identification is usually from December to April as mature fruiting material is required to distinguish between species. -

ACT, Australian Capital Territory
Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations. -

Appendix F Species List Appendix F: Species List F. Species List F.1 Lists The following list and three tables denote the bird, mammal, fish, and plant species known to occur in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (Arctic Refuge, Refuge). F.1.1 Birds of Arctic Refuge A total of 201 bird species have been recorded on Arctic Refuge. This list describes their status and abundance. Many birds migrate outside of the Refuge in the winter, so unless otherwise noted, the information is for spring, summer, or fall. Bird names and taxonomic classification follow American Ornithologists' Union (1998). F.1.1.1 Definitions of classifications used Regions of the Refuge . Coastal Plain – The area between the coast and the Brooks Range. This area is sometimes split into coastal areas (lagoons, barrier islands, and Beaufort Sea) and inland areas (uplands near the foothills of the Brooks Range). Brooks Range – The mountains, valleys, and foothills north and south of the Continental Divide. South Side – The foothills, taiga, and boreal forest south of the Brooks Range. Status . Permanent Resident – Present throughout the year and breeds in the area. Summer Resident – Only present from May to September. Migrant – Travels through on the way to wintering or breeding areas. Breeder – Documented as a breeding species. Visitor – Present as a non-breeding species. * – Not documented. Abundance . Abundant – Very numerous in suitable habitats. Common – Very likely to be seen or heard in suitable habitats. Fairly Common – Numerous but not always present in suitable habitats. Uncommon – Occurs regularly but not always observed because of lower abundance or secretive behaviors. -
