Name: ___________________________________ Due: Monday, July 27th CRASSULACEAE (Stonecrop family) • 35 genera; 1500 species • succelent herbs - shrubs • Leaves + stems succulent • Flowers bisexual, actinomorphic, 4 – 5 sepals and petals, distinct or connate; 4 – 5 distinct – slightly fused carpels, ovaries superior • each carpel subtended by scale-like nectary • Fruit an aggregate of follicles • Examples: Sedum (stonecrop), Echeveria, Kalanchoe, Sempervivum Greenhouse Desert Room Table 7-2, near the sign, holds most of the Crassulaceae family in this room. Check out the squarish looking Crassula lycopodioides. Also, look at the largish plant on the Kincaid side of the table near the 7-2 sign, Echeberia glauca. This species has a determinate inflorescence where a younger flower grows out of the axil of the flower below it. This type of inflorescence is called a cyme. What is the number in the top, right corner? ________________ (1 pt) Outside Greenhouse Outside, in the beds in front of the desert room, are a lot of various Crassulaceae plants mixed in with others. Look for large, purple-pinkish Crassulaceae that are flowering. These are Sempervivum (houseleeks or liveforevers), they have 5-10 partially fused carpels at the center of each flower. If the chainlink gate just to the south of the GH is open, walk in and near the far end in the center is a Kalanchoe plant. Note the rare form of vegetative reproduction that occurs at the leaf margins. Tiny plants with roots and leaves are produced and fall off to start new plants. Medicinal Herb Garden Section D – narrow section between Section C (open, sunny, gravel-filled area just behind the northern bus stop on Steven’s Way closest to the greenhouse) and Section E (shady section across from College of Forest Resources + Winkenwerder Hall) Welcome back to the MHG, as you walk towards Section D look around at how many plants are blooming in families you know. Look at the west-most bed (N is towards the fountain) not part of the border area. You should see Sedum spathulifolium (broadleaf stonecrop). The flowers of this plant are well past, but it’s in the same genus as a plant you keyed after Lab Quiz #2. Please use the back of this sheet or your own paper to draw a simple diagram of the inflorescence (3 pts). You should include your best attempt at some leaves but spend the majority of your effort including details about the fruit. Label the fruit type and carpels and write down the carpel number. Please don’t remove any inflorescences, these are here for us to see them but also to set new seed for future plant generations. BIOL 317: Plant Classification & Identification Summer 2009 .

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.

It is being submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or any other examination in any other University. ______________________ ______ day of ______________________ 20_____ ii ABSTRACT Introduced plants will lose interactions with natural enemies, mutualists and competitors from their native ranges, and possibly gain interactions with new species, under new abiotic conditions in their new environment. The use of biocontrol agents is based on the premise that introduced species are liberated from their natural enemies, although in some cases introduced species may not become invasive because they acquire novel natural enemies. In this study I consider the potential for the biocontrol of Bryophyllum delagoense, a Madagascan endemic, and hypothesize as to why this plant is invasive in Australia and not in South Africa. Of the 33 species of insects collected on B. delagoense in Madagascar, three species, Osphilia tenuipes, Eurytoma bryophylli, and Rhembastus sp. showed potential as biocontrol agents in Australia.

Planning Butterfly Habitat Restorations
Planning Butterfly Habitat Restorations Kim R. Mason Introduction Ecologists and entomologists in Britain and the United States have participated in numerous projects aimed at restoring, expanding, and mitigating losses of habitat for native butterflies. Some of these butterflies have been listed as threatened or endangered; others have been lost or are in decline in certain portions of their former ranges. The experiences and observations of these scientists illustrate potential needs and concerns when planning to restore or improve existing butterfly habitat. This paper will relate several cases in which complex biotic and abiotic interactions played important roles in the success or failure of butterfly habitat restoration and the reestablishment of butterfly populations. Although each butterfly species has its own unique combination of habitat requirements and life history, some fundamental principles concerning butterfly biology (New 1991) are significant in planning habitat restorations. Most caterpillars are herbivores, and many are specialists which feed on only one kind or a few related kinds of plants. Therefore, the presence of appropriate larval host plants is the primary requirement of habitat restoration. In addition, many butterfly species require that the larval food plant be in a particular growth stage, of a certain height, exposed to the proper amount of sunlight, or in close proximity to another resource. Adults typically utilize a wider range of plants or other resources as food, and flight gives them expanded mobility. However, adult dispersal ability varies from species to species. For some, physical features such as a few meters of open space, a stream, a hedge, or a change in gradient create intrinsic barriers to dispersal; other species routinely migrate long distances.

Sacramento Fish and Wildlife Field Office U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Sacramento, California February 2010 5-YEAR REVIEW San Bruno Elfin Butterfly (Callophrys mossii bayensis) and Mission blue butterfly (Icaricia icarioides missionensis) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-Year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing of a species as endangered or threatened is based on the existence of threats attributable to one or more of the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act, and we must consider these same five factors in any subsequent consideration of reclassification or delisting of a species. In the 5-year review, we consider the best available scientific and commercial data on the species, and focus on new information available since the species was listed or last reviewed.

Some Major Families and Genera of Succulent Plants
SOME MAJOR FAMILIES AND GENERA OF SUCCULENT PLANTS Including Natural Distribution, Growth Form, and Popularity as Container Plants Daniel L. Mahr There are 50-60 plant families that contain at least one species of succulent plant. By far the largest families are the Cactaceae (cactus family) and Aizoaceae (also known as the Mesembryanthemaceae, the ice plant family), each of which contains about 2000 species; together they total about 40% of all succulent plants. In addition to these two families there are 6-8 more that are commonly grown by home gardeners and succulent plant enthusiasts. The following list is in alphabetic order. The most popular genera for container culture are indicated by bold type. Taxonomic groupings are changed occasionally as new research information becomes available. But old names that have been in common usage are not easily cast aside. Significant name changes noted in parentheses ( ) are listed at the end of the table.
