January 2020. The New England Botanical Club met at the Field Headquarters of the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife in Westborough, Massachusetts, on January 11, 2020, for its 1143 meeting entitled ‘‘20th Assembly of Associates’ Appetizing Alimentary Acquisitions and Amazing Apparitions of Angiosperms.’’ It was the annual meeting where members share a potluck dinner, raffle, and presentations by members on botanical adventures from the last year. The potluck dinner was again delicious with an assortment of breads, salads, main dishes, and desserts, sporting labels that identified their ingredients using botanical scientific names. This year’s raffle was the largest ever with more than 75 items donated. Many of the books from a retiring botanist’s library were excitedly won by one of the younger members of the Club. Seven NEBC members gave show-and-tell presentations. Richard Primack started the evening with a presentation on a beautiful and highly variable species, swamp rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos), which has become common along the banks of the Charles River in Newton, Massachusetts, and towns further upstream. Populations are noteworthy for the extraordinary variability in flower form. All flowers within a plant look the same, but different plants vary dramatically in flower size, color (white to light pink to dark pink), petal shape (narrow or broad), and presence or absence of a red bull’s eye in the center of the flower. This range of variation is found within each population examined along the Charles River, and the variation in size is evident in herbarium specimens measured from across the United States. Cultivated rose mallow plants grown as ornamental plants in Boston have larger flowers, broader petals, and a greater frequency of white flowers and red bull’s eye flowers than plants in the wild. What remains unknown is the adaptive significance of this floral variation to plants in the wild. Keith Williams described surveys of three remote lakes in the Maine Allagash Wilderness, assisted by Sibyl French, Dennis Roberge, Bunny Wescott, and Mark Whiting in late July and early August 2019. Allagash Pond, northwest of the larger Allagash Lake, and Round Pond and Daggett Pond, both south of Allagash Lake, are about 100– 500 acres in size and shallow (8–20 feet). Keith’s intent in surveying these boreal forest ponds, as he has been doing for 20 years, is to inventory the aquatic plants, their prevalence, and correlations with water chemistry (samples collected for Environmental Protection
2020年1月。2020年1月11日,新英格兰植物学俱乐部在马萨诸塞州韦斯特伯勒渔业和野生动物部的野外总部举行了第143次会议,题为“第20届协会开胃食物获取和被子植物惊人现身大会”。在一年一度的会议上,成员们一起吃家常便饭,抽奖,并听取成员们去年的植物探险报告。这顿家常便饭又很美味,有各种各样的面包、沙拉、主菜和甜点,它们的标签上都用植物的科学名称标明了它们的成分。今年的抽奖活动是有史以来规模最大的,捐赠了超过75件物品。一位退休的植物学家图书馆里的许多书都被俱乐部里一个年轻的成员兴奋地赢得了。七名NEBC成员做了展示和陈述。理查德·普里马克(Richard Primack)首先介绍了一种美丽而高度多变的物种——沼泽玫瑰锦葵(Hibiscus moscheutos),它在马萨诸塞州牛顿市查尔斯河沿岸以及上游城镇很常见。种群中值得注意的是花的形态的异常变化。同一种植物的所有花看起来都一样,但不同的植物在花的大小、颜色(从白色到浅粉色到深粉色)、花瓣形状(宽或窄)以及花中心是否有红牛眼方面差异很大。这种变化范围在查尔斯河沿岸的每个种群中都有发现,在美国各地的植物标本馆测量的标本中,大小的变化也很明显。在波士顿作为观赏植物种植的栽培玫瑰锦葵比野生植物的花朵更大,花瓣更宽,白花和红牛眼花的频率更高。目前尚不清楚的是这种花的变异对野生植物的适应性意义。基思·威廉姆斯描述了2019年7月底和8月初在西比尔·弗兰奇、丹尼斯·罗伯奇、邦尼·韦斯科特和马克·怀廷的协助下,对缅因州阿拉加什荒野三个偏远湖泊的调查。阿拉加什湖西北部的阿拉加什湖,以及阿拉加什湖南部的圆池和达格特池,面积约为100 - 500英亩,浅(8-20英尺)。基思调查这些北方森林池塘的目的,正如他已经做了20年的那样,是为了清点水生植物,它们的流行程度,以及与水化学的相关性(为环境保护收集的样本)

Lauren Brown and Ted Elliman have produced a delightful update to her 1979 Grasses: An Identification Guide. The new book retains the original organization, keys, descriptions, and fluid line drawings, with the addition of photographs, updated text and nomenclature, and a few new species (Microstegium, among others). This is an outstanding field guide for botanists who have been afraid to dip their toes into the world of wind-pollinated linear-leaved plants, featuring common species, simple keys, and clear illustrations. The book covers the northeastern United States, from Maine to Minnesota and south to Delaware and Iowa, with an updated and expanded introductory essay on the ecology and history of the American prairie. For the most part, the book is organized by species, rather than by families or genera. There are comprehensive descriptions of the Juncaceae and of a few genera (Carex, Bromus, Dichanthelium, Setaria). The simple keys lead to a short list of similar-appearing species, which then requires the user to compare the full-page treatments. A hand lens is useful but not necessary for most species. Once species are identified, the user can begin to build concepts of genera and families. All of the major genera of Cyperaceae are included, although most feature only a single species. Carex (with over 200 species in the region covered) is represented by 14 species treated in depth. Six species of Juncus and one Luzula are included. The most comprehensively covered family is the Poaceae. The more than 90 species illustrated include the major cultivated cereal grains and most common species. Since the order of species follows the keys, species in the same genus may be separated (for example, Leersia virginica is on p. 98, L. oryzoides on p. 151), making it sometimes a little difficult to develop a generic concept or compare congeners. The book also includes some linear-leaved wind-pollinated nongraminoids (Plantago, Typha, Sparganium, Equisetum) that may be confusing to the beginner. The end material includes useful lists of species by habitat, flowering times, and size. There is an improved and expanded section on what to do if the user fails to identify a species (‘‘If You Do Not Find Something in This Book’’), and a good up-to-date list of references for
劳伦·布朗(Lauren Brown)和泰德·埃里曼(Ted Elliman)对她1979年的《草地:身份指南》(Grasses:An Identification Guide)进行了令人愉快的更新。新书保留了原始的组织、钥匙、描述和流畅的线条图,增加了照片、更新的文本和命名法,以及一些新物种(Microstegium等)。这是一本出色的野外指南,适合那些不敢涉足风媒直叶植物世界的植物学家,以常见的物种、简单的按键和清晰的插图为特色。这本书涵盖了美国东北部,从缅因州到明尼苏达州,从南到特拉华州和爱荷华州,并对美国大草原的生态和历史进行了更新和扩展。在大多数情况下,这本书是按物种而不是按科或属组织的。对Juncaceae和几个属(苔草属、雀麦属、二花属、狗尾草属)有全面的描述。简单的按键会产生一个类似物种的简短列表,然后需要用户比较整页的处理方式。人工晶状体是有用的,但对大多数物种来说不是必需的。一旦识别出物种,用户就可以开始构建属和科的概念。莎草科的所有主要属都包括在内,尽管大多数属只有一个物种。苔草(覆盖区域内有200多种)由14种深度处理的物种代表。包括六种Juncus和一种Luzula。覆盖最全面的科是禾本科。图示的90多个物种包括主要的栽培谷物和最常见的物种。由于物种的顺序遵循关键字,同一属中的物种可能会被分离(例如,Leersia virginica在第98页,L.oryzoides在第151页),这使得开发一个通用概念或比较同源物有时有点困难。这本书还包括一些由风授粉的线形叶类植物(Plantago、Typha、Sparganium、Equisetum),这些植物可能会让初学者感到困惑。最终材料包括按栖息地、开花时间和大小列出的有用物种列表。有一个改进和扩展的部分,说明如果用户无法识别一个物种该怎么办(“如果你在这本书中找不到什么”),以及

ABSTRACT. Natural areas are intended to preserve biodiversity and understanding how well they fulfill this role is crucial as pressure from anthropogenic disturbances like habitat loss increases. We re-inventoried the flora of Baker Woodlot in East Lansing, Michigan, 40 years after an initial study to document changes in community composition. Both inventories were based on vascular plant collections vouchered by specimens and deposited in the Michigan State University Herbarium. We compared results with 10 similar floristic change studies in northeastern North America to understand patterns in species turnover, accounting for gains and losses of natives and nonnatives. In Baker Woodlot and across the comparable studies, total richness stability masked a consistent pattern of native losses and nonnative gains. In Baker Woodlot, total richness increased marginally (3%; 11 species), reflecting a net loss of 19 natives and a gain of 30 nonnatives. Across the comparable studies, richness increased by 3.6%, but seven native species were lost per decade on average. Nonnative turnover was higher compared to native turnover and positively correlated with time between inventories. Despite net loss of natives, Baker Woodlot experienced only a slight decline in floristic quality. Baker Woodlot remains a high-quality beech-maple forest, which is a prominent component of Michigan's biodiversity. Species richness alone does not adequately address biodiversity concerns. In Baker Woodlot and comparable forests, natives are being replaced by nonnatives.
摘要。自然区域旨在保护生物多样性,随着栖息地丧失等人为干扰的压力增加,了解它们在多大程度上发挥这一作用至关重要。在记录群落组成变化的初步研究40年后,我们重新清点了密歇根州东兰辛市贝克伍德洛的植物群。这两份清单都是基于由标本担保的维管植物收藏,并存放在密歇根州立大学植物标本馆。我们将结果与北美东北部10项类似的区系变化研究进行了比较,以了解物种更替的模式,解释本地和非本地的得失。在Baker Woodlot和所有可比研究中,总丰富度稳定性掩盖了原生损失和非原生收益的一致模式。在Baker Woodlot,总丰富度略有增加(3%;11个物种),反映出19个本地物种的净损失和30个非本地物种的增加。在可比较的研究中,丰富度增加了3.6%,但平均每十年损失七个本土物种。非本地营业额高于本地营业额,且与库存间隔时间呈正相关。尽管本地植物净损失,Baker Woodlot的植物区系质量仅略有下降。Baker Woodlot仍然是一片优质的山毛榉枫林,是密歇根州生物多样性的重要组成部分。仅凭物种丰富度并不能充分解决生物多样性问题。在Baker Woodlot和类似的森林中,当地人正在被非当地人取代。

ABSTRACT. Dichanthelium scoparium (Poaceae) is a robust, rhizomatous panic-grass of the eastern United States. Most common in the southeast, it is considered rare in New York and had not been observed in New England since 1931. In recent years, we have discovered four new populations in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, reestablishing the species as extant in New England. To establish context for these discoveries, we evaluated past records from New England and New York, principally by inspecting digital images of voucher specimens, relying on the readily discernible diagnostic characters of the species. Using the subset of 22 verified records, we elucidate the regional distribution of the species and discuss patterns of habitat and ecological processes that may affect its presence and persistence on the landscape.
摘要。黄花(Poaceae)是美国东部一种粗壮的根状茎恐慌草。它在东南部最常见,在纽约被认为是罕见的,自1931年以来就没有在新英格兰观察到过。近年来,我们在马萨诸塞州和罗德岛州发现了四个新种群,重建了新英格兰现存的物种。为了确定这些发现的背景,我们评估了新英格兰和纽约过去的记录,主要是通过检查凭证标本的数字图像,依靠该物种易于辨别的诊断特征。使用22个已验证记录的子集,我们阐明了该物种的区域分布,并讨论了可能影响其在景观中的存在和持久性的栖息地模式和生态过程。

Using the subset of 22 verified records, we elucidate the regional distribution of the species and discuss patterns of habitat and ecological processes that may affect its presence and persistence on the landscape.","PeriodicalId":54454,"journal":{"name":"Rhodora","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48584035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT. Molecular analyses and cytological data have shown that Silene multinervia, which has always been placed in section Conoimorpha and often regarded as a heterotypic synonym of S. coniflora, is a separate taxon in a distinct clade. A comparison between S. multinervia and the members of section Conoimorpha is provided, showing that the species can be distinguished by both vegetative (plant height) and reproductive (flower number per inflorescence, calyx vein number, calyx length, petal apex shape, fruit length, carpophore length, and seed diameter) characters. Cytological, molecular, and morphological evidence support recognition of S. multinervia as a member of a new section endemic to southwestern California and northwestern Mexico (Baja California). Therefore, Silene sect. Californicae, sect. nov. (type: S. multinervia) is here proposed.
摘要分子分析和细胞学资料表明,多叶蝉(Silene multinervia)是一个独立的分类单元,它一直被置于Conoimorpha组中,通常被认为是coniflora的异型同义种。通过与Conoimorpha组成员的比较,表明该物种可以通过营养性状(株高)和生殖性状(每花序花数、萼脉数、萼长、瓣尖形状、果实长度、果柄长度和种子直径)进行区分。细胞学、分子学和形态学证据支持多叶菊作为加利福尼亚西南部和墨西哥西北部(下加利福尼亚)特有的一个新分支的成员。因此,这里提出了加利福尼亚科沉默节,第11节(类型:多叶蝉)。

ABSTRACT. A new status for Lycopus laurentianus is proposed: Lycopus americanus subsp. laurentianus, and the taxon is newly reported from the United States with occurrences in Maine, New Hampshire, New York, and Vermont. Six occurrences in Vermont and three in New York were discovered on the shores of Lake Champlain in 2007. Subsequent review of L. americanus specimens from herbaria yielded more occurrences of L. americanus subsp. laurentianus in New York and Vermont, as well as new occurrences in New Hampshire and in Maine. Important publications and data previously available only in French of this relatively obscure taxon are also presented. Nutlet morphology is presently the only reliable diagnostic character separating L. americanus subsp. laurentianus from L. americanus subsp. americanus.
摘要。提出了美洲石竹的新地位:美洲石竹亚种。laurentianus,该分类单元是美国新报道的,在缅因州、新罕布什尔州、纽约州和佛蒙特州都有分布。2007年,在尚普兰湖畔发现了六起发生在佛蒙特州的事件和三起发生在纽约州的事件。随后对草本植物中美洲乳杆菌标本的审查发现,美洲乳杆菌亚种的出现更多。纽约州和佛蒙特州的laurentianus,以及新罕布什尔州和缅因州的新病例。还介绍了以前只有法语版本的这一相对模糊的分类单元的重要出版物和数据。小坚果形态是目前分离美洲乳杆菌亚种的唯一可靠的诊断特征。来自美洲乳杆菌亚种的月桂。美洲。
