I pulled over, <br /> and checked, and found a new subpopulation of ,Lomatium bradshawii. <br /> The plants are located in the flat, wet, grassy section between the Family Center (just south <br /> of 19th and Pearl on the east side of the street), and the pedestrian bridge over Pearl Street <br /> to the stadium area. (There also are a pair of killdeer nesting there, I think.) The majority <br /> of plants are near the north end, near the Family Center parking lot: I counted 17 plants <br /> there, but there may be more. There also are two plants near the south end near the <br /> pedestrian bridge. <br /> I checked with Ed Alverson, and these plants were heretofore unknown by him. They <br /> appear to be the plants closest to the "type locality," that is, the site where the plant was first <br /> recorded from. (I realize that this sort of thing tends to excite botanists, but probably no one <br /> else!) <br /> Anyway, Tim is always grateful to have fewer areas to mow -- so I request that this be <br /> added to the list. Please hold off on mowing this area until the other Lomatium habitat areas <br /> are mowed. I will be making a sketch map of where the plants are and faxing it to you <br /> later. <br /> Please let me know if you need any further information. <br /> inventory, research, and planning for wetlands, forest lands, and other natural resources. <br /> TOTAL P.01 <br />
