JORDAN, R. A. AND J. M. HARTMAN (Graduate Program in Ecology and Evolution, P.O. Box 231, Cook College, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ 08903). Effects of canopy opening on recruitment in Clethra alnifolia populations in central New Jersey wetland forests. Bull. Torrey Bot. Club 123: 286-294. 1996.-We measured stem growth and recruitment in three populations of Clethra alnifolia established in wetland forests, in canopy gaps, and in a recently cleared powerline right-of-way (ROW) to assess the ways in which C. alnifolia responded to canopy disturbance. Seasonal growth and density of stems and flowering rates were greater in canopy gaps, although greater overall recruitment occurred in the closed canopy forest. Total stem density, extension growth, and flowering significantly increased in the ROW and were directly related to distance from the ROW edge. Seedling density and new stem recruitment also increased significantly in the disturbed area. Clethra alnifolia demonstrated a "light flexible" response to canopy disturbance, regenerating established populations in the forest primarily through vegetative reproduction and producing greater stem density and aerial cover under disturbed canopies, but requiring significant or long-term canopy disruption to initiate increased sexual reproduction.

Composition, structure, and disturbance history of Crabtree Woods: an old-growth forest of western Maryland. Bull. Torrey Bot. Club 123: 350-365. 1996.-Crabtree Woods is an old stand of mixed Appalachian hardwoods which has been identified as one of the finest examples of this vegetation type in Maryland. Because few botanical studies have been conducted on the Allegheny Plateau of Maryland and because the old-growth nature of this stand is unique in its present landscape, we undertook this study to describe the composition, structure, and disturbance history of the stand. A one hectare permanent plot was established in which all trees, saplings, snags, and logs were quantified. Woody seedlings and herbs were subsampled from 25 quadrats to describe the understory. Increment cores were obtained from all Quercus rubra trees within the plot and used for dendroecological analysis. The stand shows many structural and compositional features characteristic of old-growth forest. The overstory was dominated by Acer saccharum, Q. rubra, and Tilia americana. The stand exhibited a reverse-J diameter distribution typical of old forests and a number of trees were observed to have a diameter >100 cm DBH. Acer saccharum and Hamamelis virginiana were the prominent understory constituents. Quercus rubra was essentially absent from seedling and sapling size classes and does not appear to be regenerating. Logs and snags were abundant and occurred in a variety of decay states and diameter classes. Thirty-nine species of herbs were discovered, with Dicentra canadensis, Urtica dioica, and Impatiens pallida being the most abundant. Stem increment analysis shows multiple periods of recruitment likely associated with gap dynamics. However, certain synchronous releases suggest possible light anthropogenic disturbance (e.g., selective cutting or chestnut salvage).

Percent cover of 13 of 14 true-prairie grasses was positively correlated with burn frequency. Of these, eight have C4 and six have C3 photosynthetic pathways. Cover of 34 of 39 true-prairie forbs, and of Amorpha canescens, increased with frequency of burning. All except Aster oolentangiensis are C3 species. Cover of six of seven native, not prairie, species, all C3, decreased with increasing burn frequency. These data suggest that the adaptation of true-prairie species to repeated burning outweighs the effects of their photosynthetic pathways.

Club 123:197-205. 1996.Norway maple (Acer platanoides) is invasive within a Fagus grandifolia-Acer saccharum-Quercus spp. forest preserve in New Jersey. To assess the community-level consequences of this invasion, we compared understory composition, richness, and structure beneath canopies of invasive Acer platanoides and of native Acer saccharum and Fagus grandifolia. Understory species richness was significantly lower beneath Acer platanoides and highest beneath Fagus grandifolia. Stem densities were high beneath Acer platanoides but consisted primarily of its own seedlings and saplings. When these Acer platanoides stems were removed from the analysis, there was a trend toward lower stem densities beneath the exotic tree compared with the native canopies. Individual shrub and forb species were too patchy for any canopy affinities to demonstrate significance within this small forest preserve, with two exceptions: Epifagus virginiana, a beech (Fagus) root parasite, was less abundant under Acer platanoides than under either Fagus grandifolia or Acer saccharum; and the shrub Lindera benzoin was less abundant under Acer platanoides and Fagus grandifolia than under Acer saccharum. Among tree seedlings, the exotic Acer platanoides far outnumbered all others, beneath its own canopy and also beneath the two native trees. A surprising paucity of Fagus grandifolia reproduction seems unrelated to the biological invasion. Acer saccharum has some prospects for self-replacement judging from sapling distributions but has sparse reproduction under the other canopy species relative to its exotic congener.

amine the roles of seed and microsite limitation in determining the microdistribution of the federally-threatened plant, Amphianthus pusillus. Microhabitat variables such as soil depth, maximum water depth, soil texture, soil nutrient status, and number and fecundity of Diamorpha smallii plants correlated poorly with Amphianthus density and fecundity. Density-fecundity relationships were explored by thinning dense populations of young Amphianthus. Mean capsule production/plant declined at densities greater than 1.4 plants/10 cm2, indicating strong intraspecific competition. Capsule production per plot was constant at densities greater than 7.1 plants/10 cm2. Transplanted A. pusillus were significantly less likely to survive to produce seeds when placed in nonAmphianthus pools compared with plants transplanted into Amphianthus-containing pools, implying that microsite limitation occurred. However, 33% of the plots in non-Amphianthus pools produced capsule-bearing plants, indicating that unoccupied suitable habitat may exist and that the distribution of A. pusillus may also be dispersal-limited.

Microhabitat variables such as soil depth, maximum water depth, soil texture, soil nutrient status, and number and fecundity of Diamorpha smallii plants correlated poorly with Amphianthus density and fecundity. Density-fecundity relationships were explored by thinning dense populations of young Amphianthus.
