  • Biological Control of Two Ageratina Species (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae) in South Africa
    Biological control of two Ageratina species (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae) in South Africa F. Heystek1*, A.R. Wood2, S. Neser1 & Y. Kistensamy1 1Agricultural Research Council-Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X134, Queenswood, 0121 South Africa 2Agricultural Research Council-Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X5017, Stellenbosch, 7599 South Africa Ageratina adenophora (Spreng.) R.M.King & H.Rob. and Ageratina riparia (Regel) R.M.King & H.Rob. (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae), originally from Mexico, are invasive in many countries. These plants produce thousands of wind- and water-dispersed seeds which enable them to spread rapidly and invade stream banks and moist habitats in areas with high rainfall. Two biological control agents, a shoot-galling fly, Procecidochares utilis Stone (Diptera: Tephri- tidae), and a leaf-spot fungus, Passalora ageratinae Crous & A.R. Wood (Mycosphaerellales: Mycosphaerellaceae), were introduced against A. adenophora in South Africa in 1984 and 1987, respectively. Both established but their impact is considered insufficient. Exploratory trips to Mexico between 2007 and 2009 to search for additional agents on A. adenophora produced a gregarious leaf-feeding moth, Lophoceramica sp. (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), a stem-boring moth, probably Eugnosta medioxima (Razowski) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), a leaf-mining beetle, Pentispa fairmairei (Chapuis) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae), and a leaf-rust, Baeodromus eupatorii (Arthur) Arthur (Pucciniales: Pucciniosiraceae) all of which have been subjected to preliminary investigations. Following its success in Hawaii, the white smut fungus, Entyloma ageratinae R.W. Barreto & H.C. Evans (Entylomatales: Entylomataceae), was introduced in 1989 to South Africa against A. riparia. Its impact has not been evaluated since its establishment in 1990 in South Africa. By 2009, however, A.

  • Conceptual Design Documentation
    Appendix A: Conceptual Design Documentation APPENDIX A Conceptual Design Documentation June 2019 A-1 APPENDIX A: CONCEPTUAL DESIGN DOCUMENTATION The environmental analyses in the NEPA and CEQA documents for the proposed improvements at Oceano County Airport (the Airport) are based on conceptual designs prepared to provide a realistic basis for assessing their environmental consequences. 1. Widen runway from 50 to 60 feet 2. Widen Taxiways A, A-1, A-2, A-3, and A-4 from 20 to 25 feet 3. Relocate segmented circle and wind cone 4. Installation of taxiway edge lighting 5. Installation of hold position signage 6. Installation of a new electrical vault and connections 7. Installation of a pollution control facility (wash rack) CIVIL ENGINEERING CALCULATIONS The purpose of this conceptual design effort is to identify the amount of impervious surface, grading (cut and fill) and drainage implications of the projects identified above. The conceptual design calculations detailed in the following figures indicate that Projects 1 and 2, widening the runways and taxiways would increase the total amount of impervious surface on the Airport by 32,016 square feet, or 0.73 acres; a 6.6 percent increase in the Airport’s impervious surface area. Drainage patterns would remain the same as both the runway and taxiways would continue to sheet flow from their centerlines to the edge of pavement and then into open, grassed areas. The existing drainage system is able to accommodate the modest increase in stormwater runoff that would occur, particularly as soil conditions on the Airport are conducive to infiltration. Figure A-1 shows the locations of the seven projects incorporated in the Proposed Action.

  • Tagawa Gardens Algerian
    Algerian Ivy Hedera algeriensis Height: 20 feet Spread: 3 feet Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 7 Other Names: syn. Hedera canariensis var. algeriensis Description: An evergreen climbing vine or dense groundcover with beautiful deep green leaves; salt tolerant leaves may bronze in winter; a very drought tolerant ivy, once established; vigorous grower Ornamental Features Algerian Ivy foliage Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Algerian Ivy has dark green foliage. The glossy lobed leaves remain dark green throughout the winter. Neither the flowers nor the fruit are ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Algerian Ivy is a multi-stemmed evergreen woody vine with a twining and trailing habit of growth. Its average texture blends into the landscape, but can be balanced by one or two finer or coarser trees or shrubs for an effective composition. This woody vine will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and can be pruned at anytime. Gardeners should be aware of the following characteristic(s) that may warrant special consideration; - Spreading - Invasive Algerian Ivy is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Hedges/Screening - General Garden Use - Groundcover - Container Planting Planting & Growing Algerian Ivy will grow to be about 20 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 3 feet. As a climbing vine, it tends to be leggy near the base and should be underplanted with low-growing facer plants. It should be planted near a fence, trellis or other landscape structure where it can be trained to grow upwards on it, or allowed to trail off a retaining wall or slope. It grows at a fast rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years.

  • Ha'iwale Cyrtandra Polyantha
    No Photo Available Plants Ha‘iwale Cyrtandra polyantha SPECIES STATUS: Federally Listed as Endangered Genetic Safety Net Species IUCN Red List Ranking ‐ CR B1ab(iii); C2a(i) Hawai‘i Natural Heritage Ranking ‐ Critically Imperiled (G1) Endemism – O‘ahu Critical Habitat ‐ Designated SPECIES INFORMATION: Cyrtandra polyantha, a member of the African violet family, is an unbranched or few‐branched shrub 3 to 10 ft (1 to 3 m) in height. Its leathery, elliptic, unequal leaves are 2 to 6.3 in (5 to 16 cm) long and 0.7 to 2 in (1.8 to 5.2 cm) wide and attached oppositely along the stems. The upper surface of the leaf is conspicuously wrinkled and usually hairless, with the lower surface moderately to densely covered with pale brown hairs. Seven to 12 flowers are grouped in branched clusters in the leaf axils. The white petals, fused to form a cylindrical tube about 0.5 in (12 mm) long, emerge from a radically symmetrical calyx, 0.2 in (5 mm) long, that is cleft from one‐half to two‐thirds its length. Each calyx lobe, narrowly triangular in shape, is sparsely hairy on the outside and hairless within. The fruits are white oval berries about 0.6 in (1.8 cm) long that contain many seeds about 0.02 in (0.5 mm) long. Cyrtandra polyantha is distinguished from other species in the genus by the texture and hairiness of the leaf surfaces and the length, shape, and degree of cleft of the calyx. This species differs from C. crenota by the lack of short‐stalked glands and by its leathery leaves, opposite leaf arrangement, and radially symmetrical calyx.

However, little is known about how understory plant communities and soil nutrients respond to invasion under different land cover types. Here, we investigated the effects of the invasive species Ageratina adenophora on the species and functional diversity of understory communities and on soil phosphorus (P) status in three forest types: CF, coniferous forest; MF, coniferous and broadleaf mixed forest; and EBF, evergreen broadleaf forest.

Bethany Walker Sofia Laparidou University of Bonn University of Thessaloniki Annette Hansen Chiara Corbino University of Groningen University of Sheffield Did the Mamluks Have an Environmental Sense?: Natural Resource Management in Syrian Villages The economic changes of Sultan Barqūq’s reign and the post-Barqūqī era have increasingly come under scrutiny in recent years, changing the way we under- stand the transition to the Circassian Mamluk Sultanate. 1 The erosion of the iqṭāʿ 10.6082/M1H1304R system, through the transformation of state lands to private property, and the http://hdl.handle. “wave of waqf ” that emptied the Bayt al-Māl by Barqūq’s reign (and then again at net/11417/736 the end of the Mamluk Sultanate), necessitating a reorganization of the state fis- cal administration and the creation of new financial bureaus, are topics that have generated a respectable body of scholarship. 2 In the background of these trends is the ever-changing status of land tenure and land use. The co-authors of this article gratefully acknowledge the long-term support of the Jordanian Department of Antiquities and the American Center of Oriental Research in Amman during our many years of fieldwork in Jordan. Through a Harris Grant from the American Schools of Ori- ental Research we were able to conduct in 2014 the laser survey and 3-D documentation of sub- terranean water systems in support of our study of medieval-era irrigation.
