We thank the ESA Vegetation Classification Panel and the USNVC Peer Review Board for developing and participating in the peer review process. In particular, we thank Todd Keeler-Wolf for his peer review of the report. We thank LANDFIRE and Bureau of Land Management for providing support for the workshop. (L13AC00286, Supplement 0003). We especially thank Henry Bastian for his commitment to the development of the USNVC through workshops like this one. The U.S. Forest Service graciously hosted the workshop in Anchorage, and we thank Beth Schulz and Tina Boucher for their hospitality. We are grateful for the many professional ecologists from federal, state, and academic institutions and organizations who participated in the workshops. A participants list is provided in the report. When it came to the task of producing a final report that summarized the results of the workshop, we were fortunately to have Erin Lunsford Jones apply her skills to not only copedit the text, but to improve the report’s overall structure and coherence. We are grateful for her work. i USNVC-Proc-3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgments

  • Nova Scotia Provincial Status Report on Hoary Willow Salix Candida
    i Nova Scotia Provincial Status Report on Hoary Willow Salix candida Flűeggé ex Willd. prepared for The Nova Scotia Species at Risk Working Group by Ruth E. Newell E.C. Smith Herbarium K.C. Irving Environmental Science Centre Acadia University Wolfville, Nova Scotia B4P 2R6 Funding provided by the Nova Scotia Species at Risk Conservation Fund Submitted December 16th, 2010 ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Wildlife Species Description and Significance Salix candida (Hoary Willow) is a low, deciduous, dioecious shrub, densely white woolly on current season’s twigs and lower leaf surfaces. The mature medial leaves are narrowly elliptic or oblanceolate, usually at least 4x as long as wide. Leaf margins are entire and slightly to strongly rolled under. Flowering occurs concurrently with leaf emergence. Female flowers have stalks 0.1 to 1.2 mm long and tomentose pistils. The anthers of male flowers are purple later changing to yellow. The fruit is a tomentose, pear-shaped capsule. Reproduction is both sexual and asexual by layering. Salix candida is an extremely rare species in Nova Scotia occurring in a rare habitat type i.e., rich, calcareous fens or marshes. Distribution In Nova Scotia, Hoary Willow occurs within the Black River system at the northwest end of Lake Ainslie, Inverness County, Cape Breton Island. Here it is known from four rich calcareous fens in close proximity to the river floodplain plus a single plant in a calcareous graminoid marsh. Field work failed to confirm the presence of Salix candida in Huntington, Cape Breton County - a record based on a herbarium specimen from Cape Breton University herbarium.

  • Alagnak Wild River & Katmai National Park Vascular Plant Inventory Annual Technical Report
    ALAGNAK WILD RIVER & KATMAI NATIONAL PARK VASCULAR PLANT INVENTORY ANNUAL TECHNICAL REPORT Matthew L. Carlson & Robert Lipkin Alaska Natural Heritage Program Environment and Natural Resources Institute University of Alaska Anchorage 707 "A" Street Anchorage, Alaska 99501 National Park Service Alaska Region Inventory & Monitoring Program NPS Report : June 2003 Cooperative Agreement No. 1443CA991000013 Funding Source: National Park Service, Inventory & Monitoring Program ALAGNAK WILD RIVER & KATMAI NATIONAL PARK VASCULAR PLANT INVENTORY ANNUAL TECHNICAL REPORT 2 ABSTRACT In 2002, the Alaska Natural Heritage Program (AKNHP), conducted vascular plant field inventories in the Alagnak Wild River and Katmai Nation Park units in accordance with a cooperative agreement with the National Park Service. The primary goal was to document ≥ 90% of the vascular plant species expected to occur within the parks and significantly improve our understanding of current species distributions. The inventory targeted diverse habitat types and poorly-sampled areas. The AKNHP visited four diverse eco-geographic regions and sampled intensively within these regions from late June to mid-August, 2002. A total of 530 specimens were collected, recorded, pressed, and curated. For Katmai Park, 317 individual taxa are represented, 146 are new records for the park, and an additional 41 represent verifications of previously unvouchered reports. Of the 133 specimens collected from the Alagnak Wild River, 120 are new records for that unit. A number of finds were significant range extensions or taxa of conservation concern. Dupontia fisheri is a tundra grass of northern and western Alaska. We located a population at Swikshak Lagoon, over 300 km east of the other outlying stations, and this site is the first recording from a woodland marsh in Alaska.

Se registraron 93 especies, 62 de las cuales son típicas de ambientes lénticos. La subcuenca Río Tamesí fue la que registró el mayor número de especies (68, 73.1%). No se registraron especies endémicas del estado, aunque existen 2 especies restringidas al territorio mexicano (Lobelia purpusii y Oserya coulteriana). Se consideran como raras 29 especies (31.2%) por presentarse en una sola subcuenca y sólo 2 especies están distribuidas ampliamente en la mayoría de éstas (Bacopa monnieri y Echinodorus berteroi). Un análisis de parsimonia de endemismos (PAE) de las subcuencas hidrológicas del estado con base en la presencia compartida de especies reveló que las plantas acuáticas estrictas presentan un patrón de distribución anidado.
