  • Endangered Species
    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

  • COPEIA February 1
    2000, No. 1COPEIA February 1 Copeia, 2000(1), pp. 1±10 Phylogenetic Relationships in the North American Cyprinid Genus Cyprinella (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae) Based on Sequences of the Mitochondrial ND2 and ND4L Genes RICHARD E. BROUGHTON AND JOHN R. GOLD Shiners of the cyprinid genus Cyprinella are abundant and broadly distributed in eastern and central North America. Thirty species are currently placed in the genus: these include six species restricted to Mexico and three barbeled forms formerly placed in different cyprinid genera (primarily Hybopsis). We conducted a molecular phylogenetic analysis of all species of Cyprinella found in the United States, using complete nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial, protein-coding genes ND2 and ND4L. Maximum-parsimony analysis recovered a single most-parsimonious tree for Cyprinella. Among historically recognized, nonbarbeled Cyprinella, the mitochondrial (mt) DNA tree indicated that basal lineages in Cyprinella are comprised largely of species with linear breeding tubercles and that are endemic to Atlantic and/or Gulf slope drainages, whereas derived lineages are comprised of species broadly distrib- uted in the Mississippi basin and the American Southwest. The Alabama Shiner, C. callistia, was basal in the mtDNA tree, although a monophyletic Cyprinella that in- cluded C. callistia was not supported in more than 50% of bootstrap replicates. There was strong bootstrap support (89%) for a clade that included all species of nonbarbeled Cyprinella (except C. callistia) and two barbeled species, C. labrosa and C. zanema. The third barbeled species, C. monacha, fell outside of Cyprinella sister to a species of Hybopsis. Within Cyprinella were a series of well-supported species groups, although in some cases bootstrap support for relationships among groups was below 50%.

  • Jeffrey James Keeling Sul Ross State University Box C-64 Alpine, Texas 79832-0001, U.S.A
    AN ANNOTATED VASCULAR FLORA AND FLORISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE NATURE CONSERVANCY DAVIS MOUNTAINS PRESERVE, JEFF DAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS, U.S.A. Jeffrey James Keeling Sul Ross State University Box C-64 Alpine, Texas 79832-0001, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT The Nature Conservancy Davis Mountains Preserve (DMP) is located 24.9 mi (40 km) northwest of Fort Davis, Texas, in the northeastern region of the Chihuahuan Desert and consists of some of the most complex topography of the Davis Mountains, including their summit, Mount Livermore, at 8378 ft (2554 m). The cool, temperate, “sky island” ecosystem caters to the requirements that are needed to accommo- date a wide range of unique diversity, endemism, and vegetation patterns, including desert grasslands and montane savannahs. The current study began in May of 2011 and aimed to catalogue the entire vascular flora of the 18,360 acres of Nature Conservancy property south of Highway 118 and directly surrounding Mount Livermore. Previous botanical investigations are presented, as well as biogeographic relation- ships of the flora. The numbers from herbaria searches and from the recent field collections combine to a total of 2,153 voucher specimens, representing 483 species and infraspecies, 288 genera, and 87 families. The best-represented families are Asteraceae (89 species, 18.4% of the total flora), Poaceae (76 species, 15.7% of the total flora), and Fabaceae (21 species, 4.3% of the total flora). The current study represents a 25.44% increase in vouchered specimens and a 9.7% increase in known species from the study area’s 18,360 acres and describes four en- demic and fourteen non-native species (four invasive) on the property.

  • BLUE SHINER Scientific Name: Cyprinella Caerulea Other
    Common Name: BLUE SHINER Scientific Name: Cyprinella caerulea Other Commonly Used Names: none Previously Used Scientific Names: none Family: Cyprinidae Rarity Ranks: G2/S1 State Legal Status: Endangered Federal Legal Status: Threatened Description: Blue shiners grow to 10 cm (4 in) in length. Coloration is olive dorsally with silvery sides. A distinctive metallic blue-black lateral stripe runs from the gill covering to the caudal fin where it widens to form a spot at the base of the caudal fin. Scale edges above and below the lateral stripe are edged with melanophores to form a distinctive diamond shape. Mouth opens just below the snout tip and is slanted in profile. Breeding males develop intense yellow on all fins except the dorsal. Similar Species: Four other species of Cyprinella are known from the Conasauga River system: the Alabama shiner (C. callistia), the blacktail shiner (C. venusta) the introduced red shiner (C. lutrensis) and the tricolor shiner (C. trichroistia). The uniform width and intensity of the lateral stripe separates the blue shiner from all of these species. Habitat: The preferred habitat of blue shiners consists of small to medium streams that include rocky substrates. Fish are found in riffles and runs, as well as pools with moderate to swift current, over gravel to cobble or boulder substrate. Diet: Terrestrial insects captured from stream drift; also aquatic insects. Life History: Blue shiners have an extended spawning period from May to August. Eggs are deposited in silt free areas in rock crevices, or possibly crevices in woody debris, in habitats with moderate current. Life history studies on the blue shiner revealed that most individuals were sexually mature in the third summer of life and some were in their fourth.

  • Notes on Fraxinus Cuspidata and F. Gooddingii (Oleaceae)
    Nesom, G.L. 2010. Notes on Fraxinus cuspidata and F. gooddingii (Oleaceae). Phytoneuron 2010-38: 1–14. Mailed 1 September 2010. NOTES ON FRAXINUS CUSPIDATA AND F. GOODDINGII (OLEACEAE) GUY L. N ESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, TX 76109, USA www.guynesom.com ABSTRACT Fraxinus cuspidata and F. macropetala are distinct in leaf morphology and geography but an area of intermediacy occurs in western New Mexico and the two taxa are treated here as conspecific: F. cuspidata Torr. var. cuspidata and F. cuspidata var. macropetala (Eastw.) Sarg. Apparent foliar dimorphism has been documented throughout the range of var. cuspidata –– the atypical leaves may occur on branches of plants with otherwise typical leaves or entire plants apparently may produce the atypical morphology. Distributions of the two varieties are mapped and lectotypes are designated for F. cuspidata and F. macropetala . A description with comments and distribution map are provided for F. gooddingii . KEY WORDS : Fraxinus cuspidata , F. macropetala , F. gooddingii , Oleaceae Fraxinus cuspidata Torr. has been treated to include macropetala Eastw. or as a variety (e.g., Kearney & Peebles 1960) or simply as a synonym (e.g., Miller 1955, Holmgren 1984). In the review here, it is observed that the difference is subtle but the two taxa are maintained as weakly differentiated geographic entities. FRAXINUS CUSPIDATA Torr. in W.H. Emory, Rep. U.S. Mex.
