Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE
Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE LILIACEAE de Jussieu 1789 (Lily Family) (also see AGAVACEAE, ALLIACEAE, ALSTROEMERIACEAE, AMARYLLIDACEAE, ASPARAGACEAE, COLCHICACEAE, HEMEROCALLIDACEAE, HOSTACEAE, HYACINTHACEAE, HYPOXIDACEAE, MELANTHIACEAE, NARTHECIACEAE, RUSCACEAE, SMILACACEAE, THEMIDACEAE, TOFIELDIACEAE) As here interpreted narrowly, the Liliaceae constitutes about 11 genera and 550 species, of the Northern Hemisphere. There has been much recent investigation and re-interpretation of evidence regarding the upper-level taxonomy of the Liliales, with strong suggestions that the broad Liliaceae recognized by Cronquist (1981) is artificial and polyphyletic. Cronquist (1993) himself concurs, at least to a degree: "we still await a comprehensive reorganization of the lilies into several families more comparable to other recognized families of angiosperms." Dahlgren & Clifford (1982) and Dahlgren, Clifford, & Yeo (1985) synthesized an early phase in the modern revolution of monocot taxonomy. Since then, additional research, especially molecular (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993, Bogler & Simpson 1995, and many others), has strongly validated the general lines (and many details) of Dahlgren's arrangement. The most recent synthesis (Kubitzki 1998a) is followed as the basis for familial and generic taxonomy of the lilies and their relatives (see summary below). References: Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (1998, 2003); Tamura in Kubitzki (1998a). Our “liliaceous” genera (members of orders placed in the Lilianae) are therefore divided as shown below, largely following Kubitzki (1998a) and some more recent molecular analyses. ALISMATALES TOFIELDIACEAE: Pleea, Tofieldia. LILIALES ALSTROEMERIACEAE: Alstroemeria COLCHICACEAE: Colchicum, Uvularia. LILIACEAE: Clintonia, Erythronium, Lilium, Medeola, Prosartes, Streptopus, Tricyrtis, Tulipa. MELANTHIACEAE: Amianthium, Anticlea, Chamaelirium, Helonias, Melanthium, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Veratrum, Toxicoscordion, Trillium, Xerophyllum, Zigadenus. -
Botanical Assessment: Biasiolli Forest
Summer Botanical Assessment: Biasiolli Forest August 2014 Property: Biasiolli Forest Greene and Albemarle Counties, Virginia Prepared for: 500-Year Forest Foundation Durham, NC 1 SUMMARY On July 31st and August 1st 2014, Virginia Forestry and Wildlife Group conducted a botanical survey on approximately 107 acres* of mostly forested land owned by Frank and Eleanor Biasiolli. This assessment of the property’s floristic diversity was conducted in agreement with a conservation easement through the 500-Year Forest Foundation. Data collected though this mid-summer effort is intended to build upon data obtained during spring sampling efforts, also conducted by Virginia Forestry and Wildlife Group on May 4th and 5th 2014. Merging data from spring and summer sampling efforts has produced a comprehensive list of species documented for the Biasiolli Forest as well as a thorough survey of the Forest’s diversity, noteworthy habitats, and management issues (such as invasive species). Summer sampling efforts documented an additional 119 species. Adding this figure to the 112 species documented during spring sampling efforts yields a total of 231 species documented as occurring on the Biasiolli Forest. Merging data from spring and summer sampling efforts has shown that approximately 84% of Biasiolli’s flora is native to North America and the remaining 16% is introduced. Approximately 3% of Biasiolli’s flora is heavily invasive on the property. Early and late summer sampling efforts will likely add to the number of taxa already documented for the Biasiolli Forest. Sampling efforts conducted in subsequent seasons are also likely to turn up additional taxa due to anomalies between growing seasons. -
Floristic Quality Assessment Report
FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al. -

Notes on Florida's Endangered and Threatened Plants 1
NOTES ON FLORIDA'S ENDANGERED AND THREATENED PLANTS 1 Nancy C. Coile2 The Regulated Plant Index is based on information provided by the Endangered Plant Advisory Council (EPAC), a group of seven individuals who represent academic, industry, and environmental interests (Dr. Loran C. Anderson, Dr. Daniel F. Austin,. Mr. Charles D. D aniel III, Mr. David M . Drylie, Jr., Ms. Eve R. Hannahs, Mr. Richard L. Moyroud, and Dr. Daniel B. Ward). Rule Chap. 5B-40, Florida Administrative Code, contains the "Regulated Plant Index" (5B-40.0055) and lists endangered, threatened, and commercially exploited plant species for Florida; defines the categories; lists instances where permits may be issued; and describes penalties for vio lations. Copies of this Rule may be obtained from Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry, P. O. Box 147100, Gainesville, Fl 32614-7100. Amended 20 September 2000, the "Regulated Plant Index" contains 415 endangered species, 113 threatened species, and eight commercially exploited species. Descriptions of these rare species are often difficult to locate. Florida does not have a single manual covering the flora of the entire state. Long and Lakela s manual (1971) focuses on the area south of Glades County; Clewell (1985) is a guide for the Panhandle; and Wunderlin (1998) is a guide for the entire state of Florida but lacks descriptions. Small (1933) is an excellent resource, but must be used with great care since the nomenclature is outdated and frequently disputed. Clewell (1985) and Wunderlin (1998 ) are guides with keys to the flora, but lack species descriptions. Distribution maps (Wund erlin and Hansen, 200 0) are available over the Internet through the University of South Florida Herbarium [www.plantatlas.usf.edu/]. -

Recommended Landscape Species List for Street Trees and Land Development Projects
Recommended Landscape Species List for Street Trees and Land Development Projects Hendersonville, North Carolina Planning Jurisdiction Tree City USA Sterling Community & Bee City USA Community City of Hendersonville Community Development Department 100 N. King Street Hendersonville, NC 28792 828-697-3010 www.hendersonvillenc.gov Revised & Adopted by the Hendersonville Tree Board, March 2021 Intent This document does not regulate planting on private property that is not undergoing site plan or development review by the City of Hendersonville. The species listed here are not intended to be all-inclusive and other species may be approved if selected for site appropriateness and functional suitability. Developers are highly encouraged to consult local landscape architects, nurseries and/or landscape contractors. Contact information for other governmental agencies that can offer valuable assistance in plant selection is listed below. In the following lists of plants, species are listed alphabetically by their botanical/scientific names. Non-native species are designated by an “x” mark. Unless otherwise noted, the term “native” refers to plants indigenous to the southeastern US and not just western NC. Some plants in this greater area may or may not perform in your particular landscape due to the specific ecosystem or microclimate that you may encounter. For example, a Southern Magnolia planted in full sun on a southern facing slope may do well in our area while the same tree planted on a northern exposure at a higher elevation in our area may suffer frost damage each year. TREES AND SHRUBS FOR SCREENING (Pages 4-6) This list of plants includes large, medium and small trees along with shrubs that may be used to meet the landscaping requirements of the City of Hendersonville Zoning Ordinance.
