"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. -

Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese -
PCA) Report Name Mosquito Range Site Code S.USCOHP*375
Level 4 Potential Conservation Area (PCA) Report Name Mosquito Range Site Code S.USCOHP*375 IDENTIFIERS Site ID 342 Site Class PCA Site Alias Mosquito Peaks Cirques Macrosite Site Alias Hoosier Ridge Macrosite Site Alias Tenmile Macrosite Site Alias Mosquito Peaks Megasite Network of Conservation Areas (NCA) NCA Site ID NCA Site Code NCA Site Name - No Data County SITE DESCRIPTION Site Description This site incorporates nearly the entire alpine area of the Mosquito Range. The predominant habitats are characterized by alpine meadows, rock outcrops, scree slopes, boulder fields, alpine lakes, willow carrs, snowmelt streamlets, and permanent snow fields. Snow melt flows down the north and south-facing slopes in intermittent drainages from the top of the ridges. The slopes are typified by tufted hairgrass / golden avens (Deschampsia cespitosa / Geum rossii) and kobresia / golden avens (Kobresia myosuroides / Geum rossii) communities, with scattered patches of willows (Salix glauca and Salix brachycarpa) and krummholz Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii). Moist areas with mossy ground cover provide the necessary habitat for Penland alpine fen mustard (Eutrema penlandii), which is one of the elements of primary importance in this site. This site supports an extraordinarily high concentration of rare plant species. To date, 20 globally rare plant species and several state rare species have been documented within this site. High elevation outcrops of Leadville Limestone are said to be a predominant factor in setting the stage for such high densities of rare plant species. Many of the rarest plants in this site, including Penland alpine fen mustard, are thought to be restricted to this geologic substrate. -
Gilia Sedifolia Brandeg. (Stonecrop Gilia): a Technical Conservation Assessment

Anderson Colorado Natural Heritage Program 8002 Campus Delivery — Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523 Peer Review Administered by Society for Conservation Biology Anderson, D.G. (2004, August 9). Gilia sedifolia Brandeg. (stonecrop gilia): a technical conservation assessment. [Online]. USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Region. Available: http://www.fs.fed.us/r2/projects/scp/ assessments/giliasedifolia.pdf [date of access]. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research was facilitated by the helpfulness and generosity of many experts, particularly Bill Jennings, Susan Komarek, Peggy Lyon, J. Mark Porter, and James Reveal. Their interest in the project and time spent answering questions were extremely valuable, and their insights into the distribution, habitat, classification, and ecology ofGilia sedifolia were crucial to this project. The rediscovery of this species and its subsequent documentation are solely the work of Susan Komarek; without her efforts very little could be said about this species. J. Mark Porter’s thoughts and insights into this species have contributed greatly to our understanding of G. sedifolia. Greg Hayward, Gary Patton, Jim Maxwell, Andy Kratz, Beth Burkhart, and Joy Bartlett assisted with questions and project management. Jane Nusbaum, Carmen Morales, Betty Eckert, Candyce Jeffery, and Barbara Brayfield provided crucial financial oversight. Amy Lavender assisted with the production of the potential habitat distribution map. Annette Miller provided information for the report on seed storage status. Nan Lederer and Tim Hogan provided valuable assistance and insights at the CU Herbarium, as did Janet Wingate and Loraine Yeatts at the Kalmbach Herbarium. -
Life-History Consequences of Vegetative Damage in Scarlet Gilia, a Monocarpic Plant
Oikos 116: 975Á985, 2007 doi: 10.1111/j.2007.0030-1299.15705.x, Copyright # Oikos 2007, ISSN 0030-1299 Subject Editor: Kathy Suding, Accepted 2 March 2007 Life-history consequences of vegetative damage in scarlet gilia, a monocarpic plant Alison K. Brody, Mary V. Price and Nickolas M. Waser Alison K. Brody ([email protected]), Mary V. Price and Nickolas M. Waser, Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, P.O. Box 519, Crested Butte, CO 81224, USA. AKB also at: Dept of Biology, Univ. of Vermont, Burlington, VT 05405, USA. MVP and NMW also at: Dept of Biology, Univ. of California, Riverside, CA 92521, USA. Although herbivory can occur throughout a plant’s life, little is known about relative fitness impacts of damage at different life stages. In the long-lived monocarpic wildflower, Ipomopsis aggregata (scarlet gilia), for example, the response to browsing by ungulates in the year of flowering has been studied extensively, whereas damage and its fitness consequences during the preceding years of vegetative growth remain largely unexplored. As part of a long-term demographic study of I. aggregata, we mapped 5324 individual seedlings belonging to two annual cohorts in three natural populations, and followed these plants throughout their lives. Of the 30.4% of plants that survived past seedling stage, 15.3% suffered observable damage to the apical meristem of their single rosette of leaves, usually resulting in multiple rosettes in vegetative plants and multiple flowering stalks in plants that survived to flower. Vegetative damage reduced survival to flowering by ca 30%, and slowed growth, leading to an average delay in flowering of over one yr relative to undamaged plants. -

Likewise, weaker but species diversity are based on morphological assessments, which significant correlations were observed between F1 sterility and may not provide accurate counts of biological species. Here we genetic distance in both D. fladnizensis (r ϭ 0.32) and D. nivalis report on crossing relationships within three diploid circumpolar (r ϭ 0.29) (Fig. 3). Geographic distance was strongly correlated plant species in the genus Draba (Brassicaceae). Although 99% of with F1 sterility (r ϭ 0.60) in D. fladnizensis but not in D. nivalis parental individuals were fully fertile, the fertility of intraspecific (Fig. 3). crosses was surprisingly low. Hybrids from crosses within popula- tions were mostly fertile (63%), but only 8% of the hybrids from Discussion crosses within and among geographic regions (Alaska, Greenland, Our results indicate that numerous cryptic biological species Svalbard, and Norway) were fertile. The frequent occurrence of exist within D. fladnizensis and D. nivalis; 92% of the within- and intraspecific crossing barriers is not accompanied by significant among-region crosses resulted in sterile or semisterile hybrids morphological or ecological differentiation, indicating that numer- despite the full fertility of parental plants. -

Rare Plant Survey of San Juan Public Lands, Colorado 2005 Prepared by Colorado Natural Heritage Program 254 General Services Building Colorado State University Fort Collins CO 80523 Rare Plant Survey of San Juan Public Lands, Colorado 2005 Prepared by Peggy Lyon and Julia Hanson Colorado Natural Heritage Program 254 General Services Building Colorado State University Fort Collins CO 80523 December 2005 Cover: Imperiled (G1 and G2) plants of the San Juan Public Lands, top left to bottom right: Lesquerella pruinosa, Draba graminea, Cryptantha gypsophila, Machaeranthera coloradoensis, Astragalus naturitensis, Physaria pulvinata, Ipomopsis polyantha, Townsendia glabella, Townsendia rothrockii. Executive Summary This survey was a continuation of several years of rare plant survey on San Juan Public Lands. Funding for the project was provided by San Juan National Forest and the San Juan Resource Area of the Bureau of Land Management. Previous rare plant surveys on San Juan Public Lands by CNHP were conducted in conjunction with county wide surveys of La Plata, Archuleta, San Juan and San Miguel counties, with partial funding from Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO); and in 2004, public lands only in Dolores and Montezuma counties, funded entirely by the San Juan Public Lands. Funding for 2005 was again provided by San Juan Public Lands. The primary emphases for field work in 2005 were: 1. revisit and update information on rare plant occurrences of agency sensitive species in the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) database that were last observed prior to 2000, in order to have the most current information available for informing the revision of the Resource Management Plan for the San Juan Public Lands (BLM and San Juan National Forest); 2.
