Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once perceived as vast wastelands, Iowa's shrinking wetlands only now are coming to be understood as the wonderlands they actually are, rich and delicate ecosystems crucial to preserving the balance of nature. This book, a treasury of information on wetland plant life in Iowa, is a critical tool for the appreciation and restoration of these invaluable resources in the state's natural heritage.Compiled by two of the state's premiere naturalists, Wildflowers and Other Plants of Iowa Wetlands is a splendid introduction to the different types of wetlands in Iowa and their beautiful and varied flora. The book contains descriptions and four-color photographs of all major wetland species in the state, as well as a wealth of useful information about historical uses of these species and about Iowa wetlands in general. Designed to guide the interested amateur, the book presents plant descriptions in order of habitat (for instance, terrestrial or aquatic), habit (e.g., floating or submerged), and taxonomic group (e.g., ferns and their allies or trees and shrubs).With this guide in hand, anyone wishing for a closer awareness of the natural marvels of Iowa's wetlands, from the shy, small white ladyslipper to the lofty sycamore, will be perfectly equipped.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in print at last in a third edition, the classic Forest and Shade Trees of Iowa now has a wealth of full-color photographs and updated, reorganized information that will please both new and returning readers. Part 1 of this guide focuses on identification, with user-friendly keys to both summer and winter trees and illustrated descriptions of more than one hundred common species. The trees are arranged according to similarities in foliage; each entry includes a large scan of a leafy branch along with two or three smaller photos of buds, flowers, fruits, and winter twigs. The text contains a description of the species, its geographical distribution, and notes on how to distinguish it from similar species. Part 2 is divided into conifers and flowering trees and includes all trees native to Iowa, trees that are widely planted, invasive species, some less commonly planted trees, and tall native shrubs that might be mistaken for trees. The authors provide information about the natural history of individual trees, their ecological requirements, pests and diseases that affect them, and their usefulness for such different purposes as windbreaks, landscaping, wildlife plantings, fuel, lumber, and food. Following these two main parts, three shorter sections describe the planting and care of trees, Iowa’s forest communities, and good places to see trees in the state; a glossary and a bibliography are also included. A complete guide to Iowa’s trees, both native and introduced, full of hundreds of color photos, this new edition of Forest and Shade Trees of Iowa will be immensely useful to arborists, foresters, horticulturists, landscape architects, gardeners, and all Iowans and midwesterners who appreciate the beauty and value of trees and want to learn more about them.

Excerpt: ...years.... and that he had shot one of them on one occasion' (Pr. Bost. Soc., xv, 1872, p. 233)." Paul Bartsch, in an article on "Birds Extinct in Iowa and Those Becoming So" (IowaOrn., 11, 1895, pp.2-3). states that the Paroquet formally ranged as far north as Spirit Lake, where it would frequently remain until the cold snow would drive it southward. Its food in winter consisted chiefly of the seeds of the cocklebur. Its nature was so peculiar that when one of the number was killed or wounded, the others would gather around it with shrill cries and in this way the entire flock could easily be annihilated. Dr. Rich states that many years ago the Paroquets were noticed just across the river from Sioux City, in Nebraska. Some were captured and kept as cage pets. A series of about a dozen specimens in the University museum were taken by D. H. Talbot's collectors at the mouth of the Arkansas River in 1882. Order COCCYGES. Cuckoos, Kingfishers, etc. Suborder CUCULI. Family CUCULID. Cuckoos, Anis, etc. Two species of Cuckoos represent this family in Iowa. They are slender brownish-gray birds with somewhat lustrous plumage. The voice is a rather hoarse croak. The American Cuckoos very seldom lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, but cases are known in which they have done so, and quite commonly the two species deposit eggs in each others' nests. Subfamily COCCYZINiE. Cuckoos. Genus Coccyzus Vieillot. 173. (387). Coccyzus americanus (Linn.). Yellow-billed Cuckoo. The Yellow-billed Cuckoo is a common summer resident in all parts of the state, arriving in May and remaining until October. Its harsh notes have caused it to be sometimes known as " Raincrow." The nests are usually placed in small trees or bushes, not over...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneer and leader in the preservation and restoration of native Midwest prairies since the 1930s, the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum has a stellar collection of prairie plant species, including horsetails, ferns, rushes, sedges, grasses, shrubs, vines, and wildflowers. This guide illustrates and describes more than 360 native and introduced species that grow and bloom on the Arboretum prairies and also briefly discusses or mentions many additional species, infraspecific taxa, and hybrids. Its intent is to increase awareness and respect for remaining small prairie remnants, motivate readers to work for prairie preservation and restoration, and encourage the planting of native species in yards and gardens. Botanist and taxonomist Theodore S. Cochrane has written the text to engage a variety of readers: prairie enthusiasts, gardeners, amateur botanists, younger students learning about plants, and college students and professionals. Nomenclature follows in part the new APG classification system. Richly illustrated with detailed color photographs by Claudia S. Lipke and botanical illustrations and maps by Kandis Elliot, the guide provides a beautiful and informative sample of the flora of the Arboretum and of the southern Wisconsin prairie landscape. Many of the plants, of course, are also found throughout the upper Midwestern United States and in adjacent southern Canada.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. government defines invasive species as "an alien species whose introduction does or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health." Invasive Species in the Pacific Northwest describes these species, how they got here, and the effects of their invasions on the region's environment. Each of 108 invasive species of fish, plants, invertebrates, mammals, and birds -- including earthworms, domestic cats and pigs, blackberries, European fruit flies, Japanese eelgrass, Mediterranean mussels, rats, and terrestrial mollusks -- is described in a 2-page spread that includes a full-color photograph of the species, a map showing the species' presence in the region, plus: -- Impact on communities and native species -- Control methods and management -- Life histories and species overview -- History of invasiveness Included are suggestions to help reduce the spread of invasive species; habitat preferences of Pacific Northwest invasive species; the World Conservation Union (ICUN) list of the world's 100 most invasive alien species; and a questionnaire designed to evaluate ecological impact and invasive potential. Invasive species have been recognized as an environmental issue since Charles Darwin's voyage on the H.M.S. Beagle. Editors P. D. Boersma, S. E. Reichard, and A. N. Van Buren explore the intentional and accidental introductions of invasive species. Whether these species were deliberately brought to the Northwest for agricultural, horticultural, aquacultural, or hunting and fishing purposes, or accidentally introduced as stowaways and contaminants, knowledge about them is integral to the protection of our environment.
