    Broadleaf Woodoats (Chasmanthium latifolia) Introductory Grass Identification Workshop University of Houston Coastal Center 23 September 2017 1 Introduction This 5 hour workshop is an introduction to the identification of grasses using hands- on dissection of diverse species found within the Texas middle Gulf Coast region (although most have a distribution well into the state and beyond). By the allotted time period the student should have acquired enough knowledge to identify most grass species in Texas to at least the genus level. For the sake of brevity grass physiology and reproduction will not be discussed. Materials provided: Dried specimens of grass species for each student to dissect Jewelry loupe 30x pocket glass magnifier Battery-powered, flexible USB light Dissecting tweezer and needle Rigid white paper background Handout: - Grass Plant Morphology - Types of Grass Inflorescences - Taxonomic description and habitat of each dissected species. - Key to all grass species of Texas - References - Glossary Itinerary (subject to change) 0900: Introduction and house keeping 0905: Structure of the course 0910: Identification and use of grass dissection tools 0915- 1145: Basic structure of the grass Identification terms Dissection of grass samples 1145 – 1230: Lunch 1230 - 1345: Field trip of area and collection by each student of one fresh grass species to identify back in the classroom. 1345 - 1400: Conclusion and discussion 2 Grass Structure spikelet pedicel inflorescence rachis culm collar internode ------ leaf blade leaf sheath node crown fibrous roots 3 Grass shoot.

    Fl. Medit. 22: 233-244 doi: 10.7320/FlMedit22.233 Version of Record published online on 28 December 2012 Hans Walter Lack & Thomas Raus Hildemar Scholz (1928 – 2012) Hildemar Scholz, aged 84, passed away on 5 June 2012 as a consequence of a bad fall he had suffered at home a few weeks earlier. He was a world authority on grasses, the adventive flora of Europe, and rust fungi from central Europe. From 1964 until his retire- ment in 1993 he was a member of staff of the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem, rising from scientific collaborator to one of the directors at this institution. Hildemar was a born plant-collector active all over Europe, in North and West Africa with a special interest in grasses and the rust fungi parasitizing them. Born on 27 May 1928 in Berlin into a family of protestant clergymen Hildemar Scholz remained both in language and manners very much a Berliner, in the true and best sense of the word, and never ever considered leaving his home town, even during the many diffi- cult years this city encountered in the last century. Having belatedly finished his school training because of the Second World War in 1947, he tried to get enrolled at Berlin University, subsequently renamed Humboldt University, in the Soviet sector of the city, but was rejected – probably because his father was a clergyman. Hildemar had more success at the newly founded Free University in the American sector of Berlin, where he got admit- ted in 1949 and chose biology as his subject.

    Emanuele Farris & Rossella Filigheddu Floristic traits of effusive substrata in North-Western Sardinia Abstract Farris, E. & Filigheddu, R.: Floristic traits of effusive substrata in North-Western Sardinia. — Bocconea 19: 287-300. 2006. — ISSN 1120-4060. The trachyte-basalt biogeographic sub-district of the north-western Sardinian district, included in the coastal and hill sub-sector of the Sardinian sector, is characterised by two large effusive complexes: Rhyolites, Andesites and Dikes of the Oligo-Miocenic limestone/alkaline cycle (14- 32 Myrs), and alkaline Basalts, Rhyolites, Rhyodacites and Dikes of the volcanic cycle with alkaline, transitional and sub-alkaline affinity of Pliocene-Pleistocene (0.14-5.3 Myrs). Between 2000 and 2002, 508 floristic/vegetation surveys were carried out on plant communi- ties in order to improve the botanical knowledge and characterise this area biogeographycally. Floristic analysis, still in progress, led to detect 476 subgeneric taxa, as many as 23% of Sardinian flora. Among them, 44 endemics were found, as many as 20.5% of the Sardinian endemic flora. In the light of these results, the trachyte-basalt sub-region is characterised, with respect to the Sardinian flora, by significantly higher percentages of hemicryptophytes and lower percentages of therophytes; an increase in Eurimediterranean taxa is highlighted, where- as orophylous taxa are lower than the regional average; among the Mediterranean ones, the occurrence of a large number of western taxa stands out and is higher than the regional aver- age, whereas eastern taxa are totally lacking. Introduction Areas characterised by effusive substrata in north-western Sardinia are among the least investigated in the island, from both a floristic and vegetational point of view.

  • Updates in the Flora of the Maltese
    A FLORISTIC SURVEY ON THE GOZITAN ISLETS OF TAĊ-ĊAWL AND TAL-ĦALFA IN THE MALTESE ARCHIPELAGO Stephen Mifsud Citation: Mifsud, S. (2011).A FLORISTIC SURVEY ON THE GOZITAN ISLETS OF TAC-CAWL AND TAL-HALFA IN THE MALTESE ISLANDS". MaltaWildPlants.com Online Publications; Ref: MWPOP-001. URL: http://www.MaltaWildPlants.com/publ/index.php#W01 Abstract A floristic survey was carried out on the islets of Tal-Ħalfa and Taċ-Ċawl, both situated just off the Southern coast of Gozo. The aim was to confirm or otherwise results of a recent study (Sciberras & Sciberras, 2010) which concluded that a number of species had become extinct or doubtful when compared to an earlier work (Cassar and Lanfranco, 2000). The present work confirms the occurrence of most of the species found by Cassar and Lanfranco and in addition reports on the discovery of a significant number of new records of legally protected or rare vascular plants. Taxonomical notes concerning a few ambiguous plants which were discovered are discussed. Keywords Flora, Taċ-Ċawl, Tal-Ħalfa, Islets, Maltese Islands 1: Introduction After reading an article (Sciberras & Sciberras, 2010) regarding surveys carried out on the islets around the Maltese islands, the author decided to visit and survey the flora of the islets of Taċ-Ċawl and Tal-Ħalfa. The reason being that of a substantial number of discrepancies between this article and an earlier survey (Cassar and Lanfranco, 2000). It was surprising to read that after visiting each site at least “four times each season from the period 1998-2010” the authors had only found 24 and 21 species for Taċ-Ċawl and Tal-Ħalfa Rocks respectively.
