Four Major Cattail Species

Mangroves are woody trees and shrubs with a thick, exposed network of roots that grow down from the branches and into the water and sediment. All mangroves are found on the intertidal zones between ocean and the land. When the sediment accumulate little wave occurs, the saline depend on the frequency. Some of the indirect impacts are the sediment runoff and also including chemical runoff, global warming is one of main effects of the mangrove ecosystem. In Tannum there are various types of mangroves. Such as the river and grey mangroves located at south tree and wild cattle in both Tannum sands and Boyne Island along the Boyne River. Leaves are around 7cm long gland that secret salt, the

“The Brown Tree Snake is one of about 1,800 species of modern snakes lumped into… the family of ‘‘typical’’ snakes… Boiga irregularis includes all of the closely related brown Boiga found east and south from Sulawesi to Australia and the Solomon Islands, though various proposals have been suggested to recognize locally distinctive forms” (Rodda, G. H., & Savidge, J. A., 2007, p. 307). “The species name irregularis recognizes the diversity of morphology in the species” (Rodda & Savidge, 2007, p. 308). Brian K. Hall explained morphological species as “being a population of individuals that share more characters (features) with one another than they do with any other organism” (Hall, B., p. 308). The typical Brown Tree Snake can be found living in trees and

Vavilov has recognized Ethiopia as the center of origin and variety of tef (National Research Council). Due to the fact that several widespread and non-widespread species of eragrostis, some of which are considered the wild relatives of tef, are found in Ethiopia. Since the genetic diversity for tef does not exist anywhere else in the world except in Ethiopia, confirms that tef originated and was

Species: P. tigris, the organism who lives in a forest and is covered wiht blackstrip fur.

The Purple Loosestrife is an invasive species that continues to reproduce and slowly being treated. The invasive species of the Purple Loosestrife, or Lythrum Salicaria, is a wetland plant that can produce up to 2.7 million seeds with each plant blooming about 30 flowering stems from early July until early September. From their long flower spikes, they have five to seven pink purple petals with a purple rose flower. This invasive species can grow from anywhere between four feet to ten feet tall. Species that are closely related or often confused to be a Purple Loosestrife include the following: fireweed, blue vervain, blazing stars, and native swamp loosestrife.

Not until 2002 did scientists begin to recognize the evolutionary changes in subspecies, and create an entirely new species scientifically labeled Parus atricristatus. In 2017, you can now find a variety of closely related species of tufted titmice who have adapted to more diverse environments across America including a wide range of the South/Northeast, and even a few states out branching out West; each adapting to their environment beautifully. (Karnicky,

Another invasive species are the Nutria. The Nutria comes from South America. It is not exactly clear

Way back 1614, the Augustinian and Spanish missionaries landed in an area in the province. At that time, there was a spreading and growing corpulent tamarind tree and known to be abundant at town plaza which was exceptionally big and very tall that the other surrounding trees were just dwarfs in appearance when being

Erysimum teretifolium, The Santa Cruz wallflower. This monocarpic plant is indigenous to the Santa Cruz Mountains. The Santa Cruz wallflower is most commonly found in open, sandy areas, and is endemic to the mountains of Santa Cruz. The Santa Cruz wallflower is being threatened by Fire exclusion, invasive species, and loss of their habitat.

3. One important species the live in the California Floristic Province is the Aloe adigratana (it has no common name). According to circumstantial evidence, it has been used as medicine. Another use of this plant is as a boundary fence. (Weber & Demissew, 2013)

Throughout the years this species of trees has become invasive to much of the United States. It has spread from some places in the southeast all the way to places in the west like California. When this species was first brought to

The family Droseraceae is a cosmopolitan species that is found on all of the continents with the exception of Antarctica. This is likely the most diverse carnivorous plant family and has 150-160 species. 11 of these species are found in the United States (Webb D. 2008). This family is usually found as an herb or rarely a small shrub. The leaves of this family are alternate or whorled. This family has simple leaves, with the lamina with glandular hairs which trap insects, or have bristles that cause the lamina to close. The stipules may be present or absent. The Stamens are as many as there are petals. The stamens may be distinct, or connate at the base. The anthers are dithecal, opening by longitudinal slits; pollen grains in
