Download or read book Florida s Aquatic Butterfly Gardens written by Sean Patton and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2025-04-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authors Kendall Southworth and Sean Patton, specialists in creating aquatic ecosystems for pollinators and wildlife, share their knowledge and skills in this guidebook for creating aquatic butterfly gardens in Florida. Over 70 butterfly species that call Florida home are closely associated with wetlands. Found on shorelines, along backyard ponds and tidal marshes, these species rely on over 100 popular aquatic host plants—the trees, shrubs, grasses, wildflowers and vines—found in Florida’s aquatic ecosystems. While Florida has lost more than 9 million acres of wetlands, more than any other state, Florida has created 70,000 stormwater systems that are easily transformed into healthy, resilient hotspots for pollinators and native wildlife. Southworth and Patton cover these underrepresented and undervalued aquatic habitats and show how they can be used to create the critically important ecosystems necessary for the butterfly species of Florida. TOC for Building an Aquatic Butterfly GardenMaking a plan, preparing the area, providing host plants, planting in clusters, planting for continuous bloom, buying local and organic, and maintaining the garden.

Download or read book Strangers in Paradise written by Daniel Simberloff and published by Island Press. This book was released on 1997-04 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invasive nonindigenous species -- plants and animals that have been introduced to an ecosystem from someplace else -- are wreaking havoc around the globe. Because they did not co-evolve with species already in the ecosystem, they can profoundly disturb species interactions and ecosystem function.The state of Florida has one of the most severe exotic species problems in the country; as much as a quarter of many taxa in Florida are nonnative, and millions of acres of land and water are dominated by nonindigenous species. Strangers in Paradise provides an in-depth examination of the Florida experience and of the ongoing efforts to eradicate or manage introduced species. Chapters consider: natural disturbance and the spread of nonindigenous species case studies of insects, freshwater invertebrates, fishes, amphibians and reptiles, birds, marine invertebrates and algae, and mammals methods of managing nonindigenous species including ecological restoration, eradication, "maintenance control," and biological control management on public lands the regulatory framework including the role of the federal government as well as state authorities and responsibilities Strangers in Paradise is the first comprehensive volume to address a large, diverse region and the full range of nonindigenous species, the problems they cause, and the methods and impediments to dealing with them. Throughout, contributors emphasize solutions and relate the situation in Florida to problems faced by other states, making the book an important guide for anyone involved with control and management of invasive species.
Download or read book Biology and Control of Aquatic Plants written by Lyn A. Gettys and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology and Control of Aquatic Plants: A Best Management Practices Handbook is the fourth edition of a handbook produced by the not for profit Aquatic Ecosystem Restoration Foundation (AERF). The mission of the AERF is to support research and development which provides strategies and techniques for the environmentally and scientifically sound management, conservation and restoration of aquatic ecosystems. One way the Foundation accomplishes this mission is by producing this handbook to provide information to the public regarding the benefits of aquatic ecosystem conservation and aquatic plant management. The first, second and third editions of this handbook became some of the most widely consulted references in the aquatic plant management community. This fourth edition has been specifically designed with water resource managers, water management associations, homeowners and customers and operators of aquatic plant management companies and districts in mind. Our goal in preparing this handbook is to provide basic, scientifically sound information to assist decision-makers with their water management questions.

Download or read book Fishes in the Freshwaters of Florida written by Robert H. Robins and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive identification guide to the 222 species of fishes in Florida’s fresh waters. Each species is presented with color photographs, key characteristics for identification, comparisons to similar species, habitat descriptions, and dot distribution maps. Florida's unique mix of species includes some of the world's favorite sport fishes, the Tarpon and Largemouth Bass. This guide also features three species native only to Florida—the Seminole Killifish, Flagfish, and Okaloosa Darter—and the smallest freshwater fish in North America, the Least Killifish. Ranging from the panhandle to the Everglades, their habitats include springs, creeks, rivers, lakes, ponds, swamps, marshes, and man-made canals. As Florida's human population grows, the state's freshwater environments are being changed in ways that threaten its native fishes. This book provides important information on the diversity, distribution, and environmental needs of both native and nonindigenous species, helping us monitor and take care of Florida's water and its aquatic inhabitants.
