Abstract

Ledum groenlandicum, Labrador tea, is an ericaceous evergreen shrub of acidic, wet areas common to northern regions of North America. The range has historically been reported as far south as northern New Jersey (Britton and Brown 1897; Gleason and Cronquist 1991). Reports and herbarium vouchers intimated that this species was restricted to Morris and Sussex Counties. However, the latest New Jersey Natural Heritage ranking for L. groenlandicum in Morris County is SX. -species that have been determined or are presumed to be extirpated, documented from a single location (NJ Natural Heritage Program 1999). Hough (1983) stated "verified Morris County site 1977, recently reported destroyed." The Morris County's occurrences are well documented for the single location between Dover and Mount Hope. This area was a larch swamp discovered by Mr. M. E. Palmer, a Budd Lake resident who with Kenneth Mackenzie visited and first collected specimens from this site in 1918, the earliest record: Mackenzie 8390, (CHRB, NY). This area was given the appellation of "Palmer's Bog" by Mackenzie (1918) in his follow-up article. Other vouchers were gathered from approximately the same site: "Dover," 1932, J. L. Edwards 774, (CU); "0.75 miles SSW of Mt. Hope," 1948, J. L. Edwards s.n., (CHRB); "North of Mt. Pleasant Avenue between Mt. Hope and Dover," 1958, Frank Hirst 43, (PH). No vouchers were found for Morris County at BKL, GH, NYS, SIM, or YU (herbaria abbreviations based on Holmgren, et al., 1990). Unfortunately, this Morris County location experienced vast disturbance, including housing, construction of Interstate 80, and shopping malls that obliterated all trace of the larch swamp and

标题在美国新泽西州重新发现的苦苣苔属植物

Ledum groenlandicum，拉布拉多茶，是北美北部地区常见的酸性、潮湿地区的一种白垩系常绿灌木。历史上曾有报道称其分布范围南至新泽西州北部(Britton and Brown 1897;Gleason and Cronquist 1991)。报告和植物标本馆凭证表明，该物种仅限于莫里斯和苏塞克斯县。然而，莫里斯县的L. groenlandicum的最新新泽西州自然遗产排名是SX。-已确定或推定灭绝的物种，记录于单一地点(1999年新泽西州自然遗产计划)。Hough(1983)指出“1977年莫里斯县的遗址经过核实，最近有报道称已被摧毁。”在多佛和霍普山之间的一个地点，莫里斯县的事件有很好的记录。该地区是一个落叶松沼泽，由巴德湖居民M. E. Palmer先生发现，他与Kenneth Mackenzie于1918年访问并首次从该地点收集标本，最早的记录:Mackenzie 8390， (CHRB, NY)。这个地区被麦肯齐(1918)在他的后续文章中称为“帕尔默沼泽”。其他代金券也大致来自同一地点:“Dover”，1932年，j.l. Edwards 774， (CU);“希望山西南偏南0.75英里”，1948年，j.l. Edwards s.n， (CHRB);“希望山和多佛之间的普莱森特山大道以北”，1958年，弗兰克·赫斯特43岁，(PH)。在BKL、GH、ny、SIM或YU(基于Holmgren等人1990年的植物标本馆缩写)没有发现莫里斯县的代金券。不幸的是，莫里斯县的这个地方经历了巨大的干扰，包括住房，80号州际公路的建设，以及购物中心，这些都摧毁了落叶松沼泽的所有痕迹

期刊介绍： The Journal of the Torrey Botanical Society (until 1997 the Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club), the oldest botanical journal in the Americas, has as its primary goal the dissemination of scientific knowledge about plants (including thallopyhtes and fungi). It publishes basic research in all areas of plant biology, except horticulture, with an emphasis on research done in, and about plants of, the Western Hemisphere.
