Fernald | Maryland, United States | NA | | Not Available | 2023 | COLLECTED | 09/01/2023 | Plants growing on the Nature Conservancy’s Wetipquin Pond property and accessed by foot. | 38.34302500, -75.82637000 | 4 | Wetipquin Pond is classified as a Delmarva bay. This type of bay is a non-tidal, seasonally flooded freshwater wetland, and is one of Maryland’s rarest natural communities. These bays occur only on the Delmarva Peninsula, typically along the backbone of the peninsula where soils are poorly drained. Seasonal flooding and saturated soils discourage many tree species from growing and create meadow-like openings dominated by grasses and sedges, providing habitat for rare plants and animals. Wetipquin Pond is an unusually pristine site found in a large contiguous wooded tract, with much to offer ecologically. The Nature Conservancy owns 40 acres, protecting the pond and surrounding forest. Because the pond is remote and largely surrounded by the State of Maryland land, it has needed limited ecological management to date. The information above has been excerpted from the Nature Conservancy: https://www.nature.org/content/dam/tnc/nature/en/documents/preserve-visitors-guide-wetipquin-pond.pdf) The Litsea aestivalis in this unique community grow on the inner fringes to the center of the sedge pond habitat in mucky to wet conditions. Almost all Litsea aestivalis plants in the community grow in full sun with very little competition other than the few associates noted below. The underlying geology of this area is comprised of Quaternary Deposits of Wisconsin to Holocene origin. The composition is primarily undifferentiated gray to buff sand and gravel, gray to brown lignitic silt and clay, occasional boulders, and rare shell beds. Surficial deposits occur as intercalated fluvial sands and marsh muds as well as well-sorted, stabilized dune sands. (Source: USGS Maryland Geologic Map Data). The surface soil profile of this habitat is classified as Mullica-Berryland Complex with 0 to 2 percent slopes. These soils are found in flats, depressions and swales. They are comprised of moderately decomposed plant material in the upper 0-5.0 cm, mucky sandy loam of very high organic matter to a depth of 25 cm, and sandy to silt loam soils to a depth of 200 cm. Mullica-Berryland Complex soils are very poorly drained with negligible runoff. A key feature of these soils is that the zone from the soil surface to a depth of 200 cm is saturated from October to June. (Source: NRCS Web Soil Survey). | Wild material | | 2167980 | NA 89124 |

Fernald | Florida, United States | NA | | Not Available | 2022 | COLLECTED | 07/29/2022 | Growing in a pond 0.37 kilometers east of Eglin AFB Range Road 220 accessed by foot. | 30.67733800, -86.46655600 | 49 | Shrubs were growing in full sun in a shallow somewhat stagnant pond containing sphagnum moss on hammocks/islands in association with small evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubs, vines and emergent herbaceous wetland plants. The pond appeared to be approximately 1 meter deep in the center to only a few centimeters deep along the edges with many small hammocks/islands containing a variety of obligate wetland and some aquatic plants. The water was a dark color and the general impression of this site was that the species diversity was lower than wetlands seen at other locations. The pond is perched at a higher elevation than the surrounding land with no discernable source of water feeding it; the team suspected that rainfall and, possible, sub-surface seeps may play a role in maintaining the habitat. There was some suspicion that under extreme drought, the pond may occasionally dry out. The underlying geology of this area is the Citronelle Formation, of Pliocene origin, and consists of gray to orange, often mottled, unconsolidated to poorly consolidated, very fine to very coarse, poorly sorted, clean to clayey sands. It contains significant amounts of clay, silt and gravel which may occur as beds and lenses and may vary considerably over short distances. Limonite nodules and limonite-cemented beds are common. | Wild material | | 2138698 | WLP 2588 |
