Glamorgan Botany Group 2017 Excursion Report
Glamorgan Botany Group 2017 Excursion Report With the end of the BSBI’s date-class inching closer, our six excursions this year all focused on 1km squares with precisely zero post-2000 records in the BSBI’s database, and over the course of our visits we recorded plants in 24 of these squares. As always, it is difficult to pick highlights, but April’s Ceratochloa carinata (California Brome) and September’s Juncus foliosus (Leafy Rush) certainly rank among the most significant discoveries... although those preferring plants with less ‘specialist appeal’ may have chosen the fine display of Dactylorhiza praetermissa (Southern Marsh Orchid) in June or the array of bog plants in July and September! Of course, we’re always sharing tips on plant identification, and this year provided plenty of opportunities to do that too – so if you want to get to know Glamorgan’s plants better, then keep an eye out for our 2018 excursion plan, which we’ll send round in February. David Barden, Karen Wilkinson and Julian Woodman Barry – Saturday 22 April On a bright, sunny, warm day, 10 botanists met to explore the open spaces in and around the old villages of Cadoxton and Merthyr Dyfan, now well within the urban area of Barry. Starting in a small area of grassland next to our meeting point, we found a few species of interest including Medicago arabica (Spotted Medick), Lactuca virosa (Great Lettuce), and Papaver lecoqii (Yellow-juiced Poppy, identified by its yellow sap). Moving into Victoria Park (shown on old maps as Cadoxton Common), we found a good range of species of short grassland, with pale- flowered Geranium molle (Dove’s-foot Cranesbill) resulting in an examination of the characteristics separating it from G. -

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms. Contributions go to the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Fund, which provides a portion of the operating budget for the Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program.

Cornus Kousa Kousa Dogwood1 Edward F
Fact Sheet ST-191 November 1993 Cornus kousa Kousa Dogwood1 Edward F. Gilman and Dennis G. Watson2 INTRODUCTION Kousa Dogwood grows 15 to 20 feet tall and has beautiful exfoliating bark, long lasting flowers, good fall color, and attractive fruit (Fig. 1). Branches grow upright when the tree is young, but appear in horizontal layers on mature trees. The crown eventually grows wider than it is tall on many specimens. It would be difficult to use too many Kousa Dogwoods. The white, pointed bracts are produced a month later than Flowering Dogwood and are effective for about a month, sometimes longer. The red fruits are edible and they look like a big round raspberry. Birds devour the fruit quickly. Fall color varies from dull red to maroon. GENERAL INFORMATION Scientific name: Cornus kousa Pronunciation: KOR-nus KOO-suh Common name(s): Kousa Dogwood, Chinese Dogwood, Japanese Dogwood Family: Cornaceae USDA hardiness zones: 5 through 8 (Fig. 2) Figure 1. Young Kousa Dogwood. Origin: not native to North America Uses: container or above-ground planter; near a deck DESCRIPTION or patio; screen; specimen Availability: generally available in many areas within Height: 15 to 20 feet its hardiness range Spread: 15 to 20 feet Crown uniformity: symmetrical canopy with a regular (or smooth) outline, and individuals have more or less identical crown forms Crown shape: round Crown density: dense Growth rate: slow 1.

Stems often weak and clambering, often notably prickly or “sticky” (i.e., retrorsely aculeolate, “velcro-like”). Raphides present. Leaves opposite, mostly with leaflike stipules in whorls of 4, 6, or more, usually sessile or occasionally petiolate, without domatia, abaxial epidermis sometimes punctate- to striate-glandular, mostly with 1 main nerve, occasionally triplinerved or palmately veined; stipules interpetiolar and usually leaflike, sometimes reduced.

Stamens (3 or)4(or occasionally 5), inserted on corolla tube near base, exserted; filaments developed to ± reduced; anthers dorsifixed. Inferior ovary 2-celled, ± didymous, ovoid, ellipsoid, or globose, smooth, papillose, tuberculate, or with hooked or rarely straight trichomes, 1 erect and axile ovule in each cell; stigmas 2-lobed, exserted. -
Research Regarding the Melliferous Charactheristics of Labiates from Xerophile Meadows from Danube Valley
Lucr ări ştiin Ńifice Zootehnie şi Biotehnologii , vol. 41(1) (2008 ), Timi şoara RESEARCH REGARDING THE MELLIFEROUS CHARACTHERISTICS OF LABIATES FROM XEROPHILE MEADOWS FROM DANUBE VALLEY CERCET ĂRI ASUPRA VALORII MELIFERE A LAMIACEELOR DIN PAJI ŞTILE XEROFITE DIN LUNCA DUN ĂRII ION NICOLETA Apiculture Research and Development Institute of Bucharest, Romania The xerophile meadows in the Danube Valley are dry meadows, located at a great distance from the Danube and with underground waters at greater depth. Their floral composition is characterized by a small number of species pertaining to both mezoxerophiles and to xerophiles, yet the highest percentage is covered by xerophile species, which are characterized by their small foliage surface, the very narrow and tough limb, and acute porosity etc.In the floral composition of these species, the graminaceae species are best represented, followed by leguminous and lamiaceae, known in beekeeping as good honey plants. Thus, the researches carried out have shown that Lamiaceae species have a good participation, with variation limits raging from 15% to 50-60%. Leguminous species are represented less on xerophile meadows than in hidrophile meadows. Among these we mention: Lotus corniculatus L., Trifolium repens L. şi Medicago lupulina L., all these species being known in beekeeping as good honey plants. Among gramineae species the most representatives are: Lolium perene L. and Poa pratensis L., yet with no melliferous value. Likewise, the group of „various” plants varied a lot as participation in the structure of the vegetal cover of xerophile meadows, depending on the place of research, all these species having no melliferous value. The current paper describes the results o biometric and melliferous researches carried out over the period 2003- 2005 on 5 plant species pertaining to the Lamiaceae family, namely: Salvia nemerosa L. -

A CHECKLIST OF THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF THE REDWOOD NATIONAL & STATE PARKS James P. Smith, Jr. Professor Emeritus of Botany Department of Biological Sciences Humboldt State Univerity Arcata, California 14 September 2018 The Redwood National and State Parks are located in Del Norte and Humboldt counties in coastal northwestern California. The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks. -
