Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vegetation of Mona Island: A Paper Read by Invitation at the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Celebration of the Missouri Botanical Garden, October 15, 1914 During the progress of the scientific survey of Porto Rico, organized by the New York Academy of Sciences with the aid of the American Museum of Natural History, the New York Botanical Garden and Columbia University, in cooperation with the Porto Rican Insular Government, exploration has been carried out not alone on the mainland of Porto Rico but on several small islands adjacent and politically a part of that colony. Two of these islands lie in the Mona Passage between Porto Rico and Santo Domingo, and being scientifically almost unknown, were made points of examination in February, 1914, when I visited them in company with Mr. John F. Cowell, Director of the Buffalo Botanic Garden, Dr. Frank E. Lutz, Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Zoology in the American Museum of Natural History, and Mr. W. E. Hess, Plant Propagator of the Porto Rico Agricultural Experiment Station at Mayaguez. The trip was made in a sloop chartered at Mayaguez. Desecheo Island, lying about eighteen miles northwest of Mayaguez, was first visited, and explored during two days; this island is somewhat more than one square mile in area, bordered by rocky coasts, rising abruptly into several hills, and covered with low trees and shrubs. Its flora is essentially identical with that of the drier parts of Porto Rico and of Santo Domingo; the small tree Morisonia americana and the snowy cactus (Mamillaria nivosa) have, however, not yet been found on the Porto Rican mainland, although both occur on the Island of Culebra east of Porto Rico, and neither of them is known on Santo Domingo. The cactus Opuntia haitiensis, plentiful there, is otherwise known only in Hispaniola, and the shrub Torrubia discolor of Hispaniola and Cuba has not been found on Porto Rico.

Download or read book Forest Vegetation Cover Assessment on Mona Island Puerto Rico written by Thomas James Brandeis and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Permanent plots were installed on the Mona Island natural reserve as part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service's forest vegetation assessment and monitoring efforts in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. In addition to tree, sapling, and seedling measurements, the data collected included detailed descriptions of percent cover of vascular plants in four height layers (0-0.6 m,>0.6-1.8 m,>1.8-4.9 m, and>4.9 m) and percent ground cover. Based on these data we provide the fi rst description of the structural characteristics, species composition, and vegetative cover of plant associations that stems from a systematic sample extending across the entire Mona Island plateau. We encountered 104 vascular plant species, however, suggesting that our surveys missed less common and sparsely distributed species. Though we also describe depression forests, they were represented by only a few sites in our systematic sample design. These data plus those that will come from future plot remeasurement will provide baseline information otherwise lacking for Caribbean subtropical dry forest ecosystems and will be of value to stakeholders and resource managers charged with management decisionmaking on this unique island.
