  • "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.

  • Impacts of Alien Land Arthropods and Mollusks on Native Plants and Animals in Hawaii
    7. IMPACTS OF ALIEN LAND ARTHROPODS AND MOLLUSKS ON NATIVE PLANTS AND ANIMALS IN HAWAIfI Francis G. Howarth ABSTRACT Over 2,000 alien arthropod species and about 30 alien non-marine mollusks are established in the wild in Hawai'i, While the data are too meager to assess fully the impacts of any of these organisms on the na- tive biota, the documentation suggests several areas of critical concern. Alien species feed directly on na- tive plants or their products, thus competing with na- tive herbivores and affecting host plants. Alien pred- ators and parasites critically reduce the populations of many native species and seriously deplete the food resources of native predators. Some immigrant species spread diseases that infect elements of the native bio- ta. Others are toxic to native predators. There is also competition for other resources, such as nesting and resting sites. Even apparently innocuous intro- duced species may provide food for alien predators, thus keeping predator populations high with an atten- dant greater impact on native prey. Control measures targeted at alien pests may be hazardous to natives. Mitigative measures must be based on sound research and firmer understanding of the complex interactions and dynamics of functioning ecosystems. Strict quarantine procedures are cost effective in preventing or delaying the establishment of potential pests. Strict control or fumigation is needed for nonessential importations (such as cow chips, Christmas trees, and flowers in bulk). Improved review of introductions for biological control is required in order to prevent repeating past mistakes. Biocontrol introductions must be used only for bona fide pests and used in native ecosystems only in special circumstances.

  • List 01 Hawaiian Names 01 Plants
    V\.{). 3 v BOTANICAL BULLETIN NO.2 JUNE. 1913 TERRITORY OF HAWAII BOARD OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY List 01 Hawaiian Names 01 Plants BY JOSEPH F. ROCK Consulting Botanist, Board of Agriculture and Forestry HONOLULU: HAWAIIAN GAZETTE CO., LTD. 1913 ALPHABETICAL LIST OF HAWAIIAN NAMES OF PLANTS. The following list of Hawaiian plant-names has been compiled from various sources. Hillebrand in his valuable Flora of the Hawaiian Islands has given many Hawaiian names, especially of the more common species; these are incorporated in this list with a few corrections. Nearly all Hawaiian plant-names found in this list and not in Hillebrand's Flora were secured from Mr. Francis Gay of the Island of Kauai, an old resident in this Terri­ tory and well acquainted with its plants from a layman's stand­ point. It was the writer's privilege to camp with Mr. Gay in the mountains of Kauai collecting botanical material; for almost every species he could give the native name, which he had se­ cured in the early days from old and reliable natives. Mr. Gay had made spatter prints of many of the native plants in a large record book with their names and uses, as well as their symbolic meaning when occurring in mele (songs) or olioli (chants), at­ tached to them. For all this information the writer is indebted mainly to Mr. Francis Gay and also to Mr. Augustus F. Knudsen of the same Island. The writer also secured Hawaiian names from old na­ tives and Kahunas (priests) in the various islands of the group.

  • Plants of Southeastern Polynesia. 3
    Plants of Southeastern Polynesia. 3. F. R. FoSBERG1 and M.-H. SACHET1 Abstract In this paper are presented critical notes and records of species of Ophioglossum (Ophi­ oglossaceae), Waltheria (Sterculiaceae), Alyxia (Apocynaceae) and Morinda (Rubiaceae), a new varietal combination and two new varieties in Alyxia stellata, and a discussion of the generic separation of Ochrosia and Neiosperma (Apocynaceae). Ophioglossum pendulum var. falcatum (Presl) Fosberg, 0cc. Pap. Bishop Mus. 23 :29, 1962. 0. pendulum L. f. var. pendulum is common at low and moderate elevations in Tahiti. A collection from 1100 m elevation, south of Orohena, MacDaniels 1533 (US) is perfectly typical var. falcatum, apparently the first record of this variety from the Society Islands and from southern Polynesia. It is by far the commoner form in the Hawaiian Islands. The typical form, var. pendulum, with long pendant sterile parts of the fronds is common in Tahiti but very rare in Hawaii. Waltheria tomentosa (J. R. & G. Forst.) St. John, Nat. Can. 98:573, 1971.2 Lophanthus tomentosus J. R. & G. Forst., Char. Gen. 14, 1775; 28, pl. 14, 1776. Waltheria lophanthus Forst. f., Prodr. 47, 1786. It is surprising that no one had made this transfer. Of course, the application of the " Kew Rule" would have made it inappropriate prior to the formulation of the modern International Rules of Botanical Nomenclature at the Vienna Congress in 1905. However, there seems to be no reason for not now taking up the oldest available epithet for this plant. This species is still to be found on the dry sides of most of the Marquesas and on the smaller, low dry islands of the group.

  • Torus-Bearing Pit Membranes in Species of Osmanthus
    IAWA Journal, Vol. 31 (2), 2010: 217–226 TORUS-BEARING PIT MEMBRANES IN SPECIES OF OSMANTHUS Roland Dute1, 5, David Rabaey2, John Allison1 and Steven Jansen3, 4 SUMMARY Torus thickenings of pit membranes are found not only in gymnosperms, but also in certain genera of dicotyledons. One such genus is Osmanthus. Wood from 17 species of Osmanthus was searched for tori. Fourteen spe- cies from three of the four sections investigated possessed these thick- enings. Ten of the species represent new records. Only the three New Caledonian species of Section Notosmanthus lacked tori. This observation in combination with other factors serves to isolate this section from the remainder of the genus. Key words: Notelaea, Osmanthus, pit membrane, torus. INTRODUCTION Osmanthus is a member of the Oleaceae (Olive Family), a moderate-sized family with circa 24 genera and 615 spp. (Stevens 2001). There are 33 natural species within the genus (Table 1; Xiang et al. 2008), and they show a tropical to temperate distribution (Bailey & Bailey 1976; Denk et al. 2001; Xiang et al. 2008). Generally, individual shrubs are found in moist forests (Hsieh et al. 1998; Chou et al. 2000; Denk et al. 2001), frequently on steep slopes (Green 1958). In some instances populations are sub- ject to monsoon conditions and hence to periods of relatively low rainfall (Yang et al. 2008; Hua 2008). Tori are thickenings of intervascular pit membranes found not only in gymnosperm, but also in angiosperm wood, including that of Osmanthus (Dute et al. 2008; Dute et al. 2010). Tori were first observed in O. fragrans, O.
