  • After Comparative Morphology, Cytology Chorology Species, Tetrap
    Cytotaxonomic notes on some Galium species Galium boreale L. II (Taxonomy G. boreale L. and allied species) BY E. Kliphuis (Communicated by Prof. Dr. J. Lanjouw at the meeting of May 26, 1973) Summary of Comparative morphological investigation Galium boreale L. on herbarium specimen from different parts of the area confirmed the complexity of this species as stated by others. This is discussed. Based on fruit-indument characters it is concluded that four varieties can be distinguished. Introduction Galium boreale L. is a polymorphic species occurring on the northern hemisphere with a circumpolar distribution. Love and Love (1954), after studies of comparative morphology, cytology and chorology concluded that Galium boreale consist of two distinct species, viz.—a tetraploid 2(n =44) occurring in Europe to deep in Asiatic Russia and a hexaploid the 2(n =66) occurring on American continent and extending to within Eastern Asia. The tetraploid would be identical with Galium boreale as described by Linnaeus (1763), the hexaploid with Galium septentrionale as described by Roemer and Schultes in 1818. Urschler, (1955), accepting this conclusions recognized on fruit-indument character within Galium boreale L. the vars. boreale and hyssopifolium (Hofifm.) D.C. and within Galium septentrionale R. et S. the vars. septentrionale, incurvatum Urschl. and Urschl. Later revealed glabrum investigators the presence of hexaploid plants also in Europe besides tetraploids (Piotrowicz, 1961; Rahn, 1961; Kliphuis, 1973). These two cytotypes are morphological inseparable when using the combinations of characters considered critical by Love and Love (Rahn, 1961; Kliphuis, 1973). More extensive research involving biometry and cultivation—and crossing—experiments equally failed to furnish reliable characters by which to distinguish the two cytotypes (Kliphuis, 1973).

In New York City, the species is most abundant near home sites and gardens where there is a history of cultivation, especially in suburban areas. Natural History: In its native Europe, bees and other insects obtain nectar from the flowers and birds disperse the fruit. The adventitious climbing roots secrete an adhesive polymer composed of nanoparticles. Root hairs shrink and curl as they dry, pulling the stem closer to the surface. These forces enable the plant to climb very high and accumulate great mass. When a tree is so encumbered, its photosynthetic potential is diminished and the tree is vulnerable to breakage in wind and ice storms. The ground covering impedes absorption from rainfall and creates desert-like conditions dominated by one species.

  • Two Plants from Rota, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands
    Recovery Outline for Two Plants from Rota Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Species and Nesogenes rotensis (no common name) Listing Status: Endangered; listed April 8, 2004 Osmoxylon mariannense (no common name) Endangered; listed April 8, 2004 Recovery Priority 2 for both species (based on classification as full species, high degree of Number: threat, high recovery potential, and absence of controversy) Population Trend: Declining Scope of Recovery Multi-species Effort: Lead Region: Region 1, Portland, Oregon Lead Field Office: Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office 300 Ala Moana Boulevard, Room 3-122 Box 50088 Honolulu, Hawaii 96850-0001 Phone: 808-792-9400 Purpose and Use of this Recovery Outline: In the interim between listing and recovery plan approval, a recovery outline provides preliminary strategies for conservation that conform to the mandates of the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). It organizes near-term recovery actions, provides rangewide conservation context for our decisions, and sets the stage for recovery planning and stakeholder involvement. The recovery outline is intended primarily for internal use by us, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, to guide conservation actions until a draft recovery plan is developed and distributed for public comment prior to the approval of the final recovery plan. Note on Information Sources: This recovery outline is based on available data contained in the final listing decision (69 FR 18499) for Nesogenes rotensis and Osmoxylon mariannense and the proposed listing rule (65 FR 35025) for N. rotensis, O. mariannense, and Tabernaemontana rotensis. Our knowledge of the natural history and ecology of these two plant species is very limited at this point in time; research to gather data critical for the conservation and recovery of these species is identified as a high priority need in this outline.

  • English Ivy (Hedera Helix)
    W231 English Ivy (Hedera helix) Becky Koepke-Hill, Extension Assistant, Plant Sciences Greg Armel, Assistant Professor, Extension Weed Specialist for Invasive Weeds, Plant Sciences Origin: English ivy is native to Europe, from northeastern Ireland to southern Scandinavia, and south to Spain. It is also native in western Asia and northern Africa. English ivy arrived in North America as a landscape plant and escaped from those landscape settings into natural areas. Description: This evergreen perennial vine can grow up to 90 feet with proper support. English ivy has two forms: juvenile and mature. Juvenile plants have leaves with three to five lobes and herbaceous stems or very thin woody stems. Mature plants have leaves with no lobes and thick woody stems, with a primary support- ing stem containing hairs similar to poison ivy. The supporting stem grows up trees or walls. Most English ivy plants in landscapes are juvenile plants. Both mature and juvenile plants have leaves with smooth edges, which are dark green with white or pale green veins. Small, inconspicuous flowers appear in the fall on mature stems and produce dark blue to black fruits. Habitat: English ivy grows in fields, hedgerows, woodlands, forest edges and upland areas. It does not thrive in wet or extremely moist areas, but will grow in a wide range of soil pH. New populations generally occur on land that has been disturbed by humans or natural occurrences. Environmental Impact: English ivy grows into thick carpets on forest floors, crowding out native vegetation, and it is one of few exotic plants that can thrive in full, deep shade.
