  • NATIONAL WETLANDS INVENTORY and the NATIONAL WETLANDS RESEARCH CENTER PROJECT REPORT FOR: GALVESTON BAY INTRODUCTION the U.S. Fi
    NATIONAL WETLANDS INVENTORY AND THE NATIONAL WETLANDS RESEARCH CENTER PROJECT REPORT FOR: GALVESTON BAY INTRODUCTION The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory is producing maps showing the location and classification of wetlands and deepwater habitats of the United States. The Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States by Cowardin et al. is the classification system used to define and classify wetlands. Upland classification will utilize the system put forth in., A Land Use and Land Cover Classification System For Use With Remote Sensor Data. by James R. Anderson, Ernest E. Hardy, John T. Roach, and Richard E. Witmer. Photo interpretation conventions, hydric soils-lists and wetland plants lists are also available to enhance the use and application of the classification system. The purpose of the report to users is threefold: (1) to provide localized information regarding the production of NWI maps, including field reconnaissance with a discussion of imagery and interpretation; (2) to provide a descriptive crosswalk from wetland codes on the map to common names and representative plant species; and (3) to explain local geography, climate, and wetland communities. II. FIELD RECONNAISSANCE Field reconnaissance of the work area is an integral part for the accurate interpretation of aerial photography. Photographic signatures are compared to the wetland's appearance in the field by observing vegetation, soil and topography. Thus information is weighted for seasonality and conditions existing at the time of photography and at ground truthing. Project Area The project area is located in the southeastern portion of Texas along the coast. Ground truthing covered specific quadrangles of each 1:100,000 including Houston NE, Houston SE, Houston NW, and Houston SW (See Appendix A, Locator Map).

  • Texas Coast Salt and Brackish Tidal Marsh
    ECOLOGICAL MAPPING SYSTEMS OF TEXAS: TEXAS COAST SALT AND BRACKISH TIDAL MARSH TEXAS COAST SALT AND BRACKISH TIDAL MARSH Nature Serve ID: CES203.473 Geology: Recent alluvial and eolian deposits along the coast. Landform: Nearly level very gentle slopes, and flats influenced by tides. Soils: Coastal sands and various Salt Marsh Ecological Sites. Description: These marshes occupy relatively low-lying, coastal situations on level landforms influenced by tidal fluctuations. Some sites are only influenced by storm tides, or tides resulting from extreme wind events. The composition of these marshes is primarily influenced by the frequency and duration of tidal inundation. Salinity on some marshes, particularly in the south, is maintained by salt spray from prevailing southeasterly winds. Low marshes are regularly flooded and representative examples are dominated by Spartina alterniflora (smooth cordgrass), Juncus roemerianus (blackrush), or Avicennia germinans (black mangrove). Significant areas of Avicennia germinans (black mangrove) become more frequent towards the south, while extensive areas of Spartina alterniflora (smooth cordgrass) become rare south of Corpus Christi Bay. Areas of decreased frequency and/or duration of tidal inundation are often referred to as high, or irregularly flooded, marsh. These marshes may be dominated by species such as Spartina patens (marshhay cordgrass), Distichlis spicata (saltgrass), Schoenoplectus robustus (sturdy bulrush), Schoenoplectus americanus (three-square bulrush), Sporobolus virginicus (seashore dropseed), Monanthochloe littoralis (shoregrass), and Spartina spartinae (Gulf cordgrass). Shrubs, subshrubs, and forbs, such as Batis maritima (saltwort), Borrichia frutescens (sea ox-eye daisy), Sesuvium portulacastrum (shoreline seapurslane), Salicornia spp. (glassworts), Suaeda linearis (annual seepweed), Limonium spp. (sea-lavenders), and Lycium carolinianum (Carolina wolfberry) are commonly encountered in these marshes.

    Beach jacquemontia (Jacquemontia reclinata House [Convolvulaceae]) is an endangered endemic plant from southeast Florida that can be propagated by seeds Jacquemontia Choisy is a tropical and or cuttings. Freshly harvested seeds from cultivated and wild plants can germinate subtropical American genus that easily in a greenhouse under South Florida ambient conditions. A higher germination belongs to the morning-glory family, success after short-term seed storage suggests an after-ripening effect; however, Convolvulaceae. There are 80 to 100 orthodox methods are acceptable for long-term storage. Soaking treatments do not species in this genus, and J. reclinata House, affect overall germination.

It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.

Srivastava Botanical Survey of India, Kolkata-700064 *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT Present studies have revealed the ocuurence of 121species and 29 varieties belonging to 12 genera in India. Nomenclature, flowering/ fruinting period, habit, habitat, distribution and uses are given. Keys to the genera/species and varieties are also given. Keywords: Polygonaceae, India INTRODUCTION Polygonaceae-a cosmopolitan family of dicotyledonous angiosperms is also known as the knotweed family or smartweed-buckwheat family. The name of the family is based on the „Type genus‟ Polygonum, and was first used by Antoine Laurent de Jussieu in 1789 in his book, Genera Plantarum. The name is derived from Greekwords viz., ‟poly’ (means many) and „goni‟ (means knee or joint) refering to the many swollen nodes on the stem/ branches. Many species are economically important (medicinal/edible/ornamental etc). Fruits of Coccoloba uviferawhich is commonly known as sea grape, are eaten and a jelly made from it is sold commercially in Florida (USA). Seeds of 2 species of Fagopyrum commonly known as „buckwheat‟yiled flour.Leaves of Rumex acetosa (common sorrel) are eaten in salads or as a potherb. Many species of Emex, Polygonum (s.l.) and Rumex are the weeds. Present studies were under taken under Flora of India Project‟of Botanical Survey of India.Brief taxonomic account consisting of nomenclature, common/vernacular names, flowering/fruiting period, habit, habitat, distribution and uses (wherever known) of the recorded taxa are given in this paper.

Weaver, Jr., Ph.D. and Patti J. Anderson, Ph.D. For this period, 170 specimens were submitted to the Botany Section for identification and 2,013 were received from other sections for identification/name verification (total 2,183). Some of the samples sent in for identification are discussed below: Abrus precatorius L. (A genus of 17 species found worldwide in warm regions.) Leguminosae/Fabaceae. Rosary pea, crab’s-eyes, licorice vine. A twining, woody vine with pinnately compound leaves, having 8-20 pairs of oblong 1-1.3 cm long leaflets. The inflorescence is a raceme 1-3 cm long. The flowers are papilionaceous (pea-like), pale purple to lavender or white (rarely). The fruit is a 1-1.5 cm wide pubescent legume containing 4-8 pea-shaped seeds that are scarlet red with a black spot. These attractive seeds (used to make bead necklaces and other jewelry) are extremely poisonous. According to Morton (1990), chewing and swallowing even a single rosary pea can be fatal, but the toxin can be rendered harmless by boiling. The peas are quite bland, but the roots have been used as a licorice flavoring. The species is an exotic invasive in Florida, Hawaii and several Caribbean Islands and was recently added to the FDACS Noxious Weed List. (Sarasota County; B2006-463; Christopher C. Carter; 27 September 2006.) (Kunkel 1984; Langeland and Burks 1998; Mabberly 1997; Morton 1990; http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/consumer/poison/Abruspr.htm; http://www.plantatlas.usf.edu).

From 1991 to 1993, we studied box turtle habitat and substrate use, activity, and the environmental variables associated with more than 1400 captures of over 800 turtles. Most turtles were resting with their heads out when encountered. Activity occurred at air temperatures > 17"C, and turtles were encountered most often at high humidities on sunny days. There were no differences among males, females, and juveniles in air temperature, substrate temperature, or relative humidity at capture site. Turtles are active year- round on Egmont Key. Activity patterns were similar between males and females, but varied seasonally. During cool weather, most adult activity occurred during the warmer parts of the day, but as the season progressed, activity became bimodal with peaks in the morning and late afternoon. Juvenile temporal activity did not change with season. Box turtles used habitats nonrandomly, and season influenced habitat use of adults but not juveniles. Juveniles were found most often in palm- pepper forest whereas adults were more widely distributed, especially on lawns of mown grass.
