  • 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.

    Spring Flowering Native Plants of Washington, D.C. and Vicinity Presentation by Rod Simmons Ford Nature Center March 26, 2011 Spring ephemerals are wildflowers of the deciduous forest that leaf out and bloom in early through mid- spring, are pollinated, and largely disappear before the forest canopy substantially leafs out. Extensive, intermixed colonies of these plants carpet the floor of rich, mesic forests and floodplain forests throughout the region. Turkey Run Park. Photo by R.H. Simmons Photo by R.H.

Simmons Spring ephemerals have evolved along with other plants, animals, and microorganisms over millennia, each occupying its special niche, to form the Eastern Deciduous Forest that many of us live in the midst of. Today, many fine remnants of this once-vast forest still remain in our region, but there is also much fragmentation and disturbance, including new threats such as invasive exotic plants and insects.

  • The Odd Case of Picris Hieracoides L. at Niagara Falls
    Clintonia, Volume 32, Issue 4, December 2017 The odd case of Picris hieracoides L. at Niagara Falls P. M. Eckel Missouri Botanical Garden PO 299, St. Louis, MO 63166 and Research Associate, Buffalo Museum of Science Picris hieracoides is one of the coarse yellow-flowered plants in the Aster Family, superficially resembling one of the Sow-Thistles (Sonchus species). It is one of a group of asteraceous genera with the flower heads all ligulate (not with all the flowers restricted to the disc or receptacle, and not with a circumference of ligulate flowers surrounding a central disc of disc flowers, as in most conspicuous Daisy-like flowers). The most common species of the ligulate-flowered genera have variously (bright) orange to yellow flowers (Cichorium being conspicuous with its flowers all blue; Prenanthes with flowers pink or purple). These are genera of the Tribe Cichorieae and the Dandelion is the most familiar to people, as is perhaps Tragopogon (the Oyster-Plant). Technical characters such as the shape and ornamentation of the seed (achene), and the plumy or scale-like crown of the achene (the pappus) and other characters make species of these genera closely resemble one another and not readily distinguishable from one another in the field. That is, they mostly all look alike and are extremely abundant in lawns, waste places and other disturbed areas, and are generally ignored by the public. Members of the Cichorieae group are also notable for their milky sap, and the fact that the leaves are only alternate on the stem, or scapose (leaves all basal, the flowers borne on a long, erect, naked stalk (such as the Dandelion).
