  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.

    Plants Big Tarplant (Blepharizonia plumosa) Big Tarplant (Blepharizonia plumosa) Status Federal: None State: None CNPS: List 1B Population Trend Global: Unknown State: Unknown Within Inventory Area: Unknown © 2002 John Game Data Characterization The location database for big tarplant includes 36 data records dated from 1916 to 2001 (California Natural Diversity Database 2005). Twenty-nine of the occurrences were documented within the last 10 years. Seven of the occurrences have not been observed for over 60 years, but all the other occurrences are believed to be extant (California Natural Diversity Database 2005). Most of the occurrences are of high precision and may be accurately located, including those within the inventory area. Very little ecological information is available for big tarplant. The published literature on the species pertains primarily to its taxonomy. The main sources of general information on this species are the Jepson Manual (Hickman 1993) and the California Native Plant Society (2005). Specific observations on habitat and plant associates, threats, and other factors are summarized in the California Natural Diversity Database (2005). Range Big tarplant is endemic to the Mount Diablo foothills and is found primarily in eastern Contra Costa, eastern Alameda, and western San Joaquin Counties (Hoover 1937). Occurrences within the ECCC HCP/NCCP Inventory Area In the inventory area, big tarplant is known from 4 occurrences on Cowell Ranch, west of Brentwood, 7 occurrences on Roddy Ranch, south of Antioch, and one occurrence in Mount Diablo State Park, southeast of Clayton (California Natural Diversity Database 2005, Lake 2004). The historic occurrences in Antioch are likely to have been extirpated, although at least 1 population is present at Black Diamond Mines Regional Park (Preston pers.

I have desired to complement this body of information with studies on the anatomy of the subtribe so that a more adequate picture of variation and evolution in this remarkable group could be obtained. The anatomical diversity of the Madinae is, in fact, no less interesting than the variation patterns in cytological, genetical, and morphological characters. The latter features lend themselves well to studies of speci­ ation, whereas the anatomical characters evidence trends in the development of genera or criteria for defining the group as a whole. In a number of instances, species dif­ ferences are also revealed by anatomical studies. The primary focus of this study is the definition of the subtribe and its genera, and the exposition of phyletic tendencies within the Madinae by combination of anatomical data with that of other disciplines.
