    March 23, 2020 Gene Broussard AMG & Associates, LLC 16633 Ventura Boulevard, Suite 10104 Encino, CA 91436 RE: Biological Site Assessment for 825 Drake Avenue Mr. Broussard, The purpose of this letter report is to provide you the results of the Biological Site Assessment (BSA) that WRA, Inc. (WRA) conducted at 825 Drake Avenue (APN: 052-112-03) in Sausalito, unincorporated Marin County, California (Study Area; Attachment A-Figure 1). The BSA site visit was conducted on December 27, 2019. The Study Area is composed of a single 1.01-acre improved parcel located at 825 Drake Avenue, approximately 0.2 air mile west of US Highway 101. The Study Area consists of developed areas including a paved parking lot, paved walkways, a semi-permanent church structure, a storage shed, and surrounding landscaped areas. Planted native and non-native landscape trees border the majority of the Study Area. The proposed development footprint based on the most recent Project plans (Kodama Diseno Architects and Planners, February 20, 2020), is located within the central portion of the Study Area and is referred to as the Project Area. Existing access to the Study Area is via a paved driveway in the southern portion of the Study Area adjacent to Drake Avenue. The purpose of this assessment is to gather information necessary to complete a review of biological resources under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This report describes the results of the site visit for which the Study Area was assessed concerning: (1) the potential to support special-status plant and wildlife species; (2) the potential presence of sensitive biological communities such as wetlands or riparian habitats subject to regulatory agency jurisdiction; and (3) the potential presence of other sensitive biological resources protected by local, state, and federal laws and regulations.

THURSDAY JUNE 7, 7:30pm Tiny and Tough: Rare Plants of Mount Tams Serpentine Barrens Speaker: Rachel Kesel Among the rare vegetation types found on Mount Tamalpais, serpentine barrens present plants with NEW S some of the harshest soil conditions for growth. For much of the year it appears that these areas of pretty blue rock and soil are indeed barren. However, several rare annual plants make a living in this habitat, including some endemic to the Mount Tam area. In addition to serpentine barrens, adjacent THE YERBA BUENA chaparral and grasslands host rare perennial species equally as tough as the tiny annuals, if far larger in CHAPTER OF THE size. CALIFORNIA Land managers across the mountain are monitoring a suite of ten rare plants found in serpentine barrens NATIVE PLANT to better understand their distributions and population fluctuations over time. Known as the Serpentine SOCIETY FOR Endemic Occupancy Project, this effort is one of many cross-jurisdictional endeavors of the One Tam initiative.

JUNE 7, THURSDAY Native Orchids of California 7:30 pm, Speaker: Ron Parsons The layman's image of orchids is, perhaps justifiably, tropical, where the greatest proliferation and elaboration of this amazing and infinitely interesting family centers. But the family's creativity extends into temperate areas, including the summer-dry mediterranean climates. California has many species and genera that are both beautiful and engaging. We have three that are indigenous NEW S to our chapter area: rein orchis, Piperia elegans (fairly common in grasslands); Michael's rein orchis, Piperia michaelii; and ladies tresses, Spiranthes romanzoffiana. We also have the naturalized THE YERBA BUENA European helleborine, Epipactis helleborine, that may pop up uninvited in your garden. Ron may CHAPTER OF THE talk about these, but he will also talk about others that help make California a fascinating state. CALIFORNIA Ron Parsons is considered by many to be one of the finest flower photographers in the United States. His photography and encyclopedic knowledge of orchids is known both nationally and NATIVE PLANT internationally. He has been photographing orchids, wildflowers, and almost every other kind of SOCIETY FOR plant for over 25 years, and has a slide collection that numbers well over 80,000 slides!

  • Phylogenetic Classification of Subtribe Castillejinae (Orobanchaceae)
    Systematic Botany (2009), 34(1): pp. 182–197 © Copyright 2009 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists Phylogenetic Classification of Subtribe Castillejinae (Orobanchaceae) David C. Tank, 1,3, 4 J. Mark Egger, 2 and Richard G. Olmstead 1,2 1 Department of Biology, University of Washington, Box 355325, Seattle, Washington 98195 U.S.A. 2 Herbarium, Burke Museum of Natural History, University of Washington, Box 355325, Seattle, Washington 98195 U.S.A. 3 Present Address: Department of Forest Resources and Stillinger Herbarium, University of Idaho, PO Box 441133, Moscow, Idaho 83844-1133 U.S.A. 4 Author for Correspondence ( [email protected] ) Communicating Editor: Lena Struwe Abstract— Recent molecular systematic research has indicated the need for a revised circumscription of generic boundaries in subtribe Castillejinae (tribe Pedicularideae, Orobanchaceae). Based on a well-resolved and well-supported phylogenetic hypothesis, we present a for- mal reclassification of the major lineages comprising the Castillejinae. Prior to this treatment, subtribe Castillejinae included Castilleja (ca. 190 spp.), Cordylanthus (18 spp.), Orthocarpus (9 spp.), Triphysaria (5 spp.), and the monotypic genera Clevelandia and Ophiocephalus. In the clas- sification presented here, Orthocarpus and Triphysaria retain their current circumscriptions, Castilleja is expanded to include Clevelandia and Ophiocephalus , and Cordylanthus is split into three genera; a key to the genera as they are recognized here is provided. Two new combinations, Castilleja beldingii and Castilleja ophiocephala , are proposed within the expanded Castilleja . The concept of Cordylanthus is restricted to the 13 species formerly recognized as subg. Cordylanthus , while subg. Dicranostegia and subg. Hemistegia are elevated to genus level ( Dicranostegia and Chloropyron , respectively).

DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions which are believed to be required to recover and/or protect listed species. Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities.
