About this file

This file contains a set of 10 attachments for a Region 6 Botanical Surveys Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), including forms and guidelines for conducting botanical surveys in Oregon and Washington. The first attachment provides a map showing the contract area covering Oregon and Washington, while subsequent attachments include standardized forms like the USDA Forest Service TES Plant Survey Field Form, Example of Invasive Plant Inventory Form, and guidelines for collecting and processing botanical specimens.

The attachments detail specific procedures and documentation requirements for conducting botanical surveys, including forms for recording site information, species data, habitat characteristics, and specimen collection. Key components include guidelines for collecting bryophyte and lichen vouchers, fungi taxa collection protocols, and standardized field tags and tracking forms. The forms require detailed documentation of location coordinates, survey methodology, target species identification, phenology, associated species, and habitat characteristics. The documents are primarily templates and procedural guidelines rather than solicitation requirements, though they illustrate the type of work to be performed under the BPA.

Guidelines for Collecting, Processing and Shipping Bryophyte and Lichen Vouchers

February 2007

1. Why voucher a specimen?

Dried plant specimens serve as scientific vouchers to document the presence of a species at a particular locality.

Vouchers are sent to experts for identification/verification.

2. How much to voucher?

If there isn’t very much material – i.e. if there are only 1 or 2 bent setas (T. geniculata) – then it would be best to not remove any material. Instead look around the area to see if more populations are present; if enough material is present, then make a voucher. If a voucher is not collected, it is very important to note that on the species location form. Use the “1 in 20 rule” when vouchering a species. Reference the article by Dr. David H.

Wagner at www.ou.edu/cas/botany-micro/ben/ben180.html. Be sure to collect reproductive structures as they are important in the identification process.

3. Please use the voucher packet provided.

This will help us to keep the data consistent and it will also give us enough information to make each collection a valuable contribution to science. Please fill in the blanks and circle the appropriate fields on each packet.

Fold the collection packet – first along the horizontal line; next fold in the margins along the tic marks, then fold the top down. Protect as necessary for shipping (e.g., small box or padded envelope). Be sure your specimens are dry prior to shipping.

4. You must assign a personal collecting number to each collection.

This can be any numbering system that you are already using but it should be a unique number for each packet.

If you don’t have a personal numbering system you could develop a system that includes your initials, the year and a number, i.e. DRP06-1048 etc. This unique collection number is important because it allows us to communicate about a specific collection.

5. Send a copy of the completed species location form (GeoBOB site observation or NRM TESP Element

Occurrence Form) with the voucher. Please provide descriptive habitat and substrate information and relocation directions – this information is not on the voucher packet and is critical for curation. (see the Collection Information Helpful Hints section below)

6. Complete the electronic Bryophyte/Lichen Tracking Sheet. Enter your field unit and specimen information into the appropriate tabs. Print the completed tabs and send with your shipment. Send an electronic copy of the completed spreadsheet to darci.pankratz@usda.gov.

7. Contact Darci Rivers-Pankratz at darci.pankratz@usda.gov regarding shipment of vouchers for verification.

http://www.ou.edu/cas/botany-micro/ben/ben180.html mailto:darci.pankratz@usda.govs mailto:darci.pankratz@usda.gov

Checklist of Products to be submitted with each shipment:

□ GeoBOB Site Form or NRM TESP EO Form – hard copy for each specimen

• habitat description

• substrate description

• relocation directions

□ Bryophyte/Lichen Tracking spreadsheet – shipping checklist (printout of completed tabs) and electronic copy

□ Packaged specimens

Note:

• Please do not use “Rite-in-the-Rain” paper or plastic containers (i.e., film canisters, pill bottles) for vouchers.

• Package the vouchers securely, so specimens do not fall out of the packet during shipping. Species that are delicate (Schistostega pennata) or have a crumbly (soil) substrate may be packaged in a smaller version of the packet inside the voucher packet. (Completely dried packets may also be put inside a zip-loc bag to prevent “leaking” during shipment.) Pin lichens may be protected by gluing into a small box.

• Any vouchers that are identified as Survey & Manage, Special Status and/or Sensitive Species will be curated and sent to the regional herbaria. You may request that a duplicate specimen be returned (provided there is enough material so that a duplicate specimen may be returned). Vouchers that are not Survey & Manage, Special Status and/or Sensitive Species will be returned.

If you need further assistance, contact Darci Rivers-Pankratz at darci.pankratz@usda.gov.

Collection Information Helpful Hints

Here are a few things that are needed by the regional herbaria for curation of your specimens – brief, but well-written descriptions for:

Location – a specimen without locality data is worthless, please include the following:

1. Directions on how to return to the location – include specific information on distance to nearest town, river crossing, highway intersection or other landmark and number of the road/highway along which locality is situated.

2. Legal reference – township, range, section and quarter section

3. Map coordinates - UTM NAD83 standard for BLM and latitude/longitude in decimal degrees is standard for

FS.

4. Elevation

Habitat – provide a detailed description of the plant community, stand structure and composition including what species of trees and shrubs are in the forest. For example: old-growth multi-story ABAM (45%), TSHE (55%) dominated forest with scattered THPL (5%). DBH of dominate trees generally about 3’, sometimes 4’ and with one ABAM appr 7’+DBH. In understory GASH, few POMU, OXOR, VAPA, VACC sp.

Substrate – what was the specimen growing on? E.g., moist Abies amabilis corticated twig or TEGE growing on east end (old cut) of a 3’DBH PSME log – decay class 1.

This information can either be written on the voucher in the notes area or the back of the envelope - OR -completed species location form sent along with your specimen.

Voucher packet is in Word so that it can be edited with the common information that pertains to your field unit.

The site and substrate characteristics circle format on the voucher packet are to aid the expert in identification of the voucher. They can also be used as descriptor words to help with the written description on the species location form. Good references are the species protocols and Guide for the Identification of Rare, Threatened or Sensitive Bryophytes in the Range of the Northern Spotted Owl, Western Washington, Western Oregon and Northwestern California, Christy, John A. and David H. Wagner, Ph.D., 1996

MANDATORY GUIDELINES for COLLECTING, PROCESSING AND SHIPPING: FUNGAL TAXA

GROUPS

Process for collecting, processing and shipping fungi:

1. Descriptive notes of fresh specimens are important for identifying fungi when they are dry. Notes on fresh color, texture, size, taste and odor are crucial. Detail is critical when describing the color variations of fungi.

It is critical to describe the colors present on ALL fresh specimens!

2. Determine which fungal taxa group [Boletes & Polypores, Cortinarius, Gilled Basidiomycetes, Corals, Non-

Gilled Basidiomycetes (Clublike, Chanterelle, Tooth, and Jelly fungi), Epigeous Ascomycetes (Elfin Saddles and cups), or Sequestrate] to which the specimen belongs. Complete the appropriate Fungi Description Form, Fungi Field Tag and GeoBOB Site Observation or NRM TES Plants Element Occurrence Form in the field.

3. Photograph fresh specimens (in situ is preferred, but in the lab/office acceptable). Please provide digital photos.

Hard-copy photographs and field tags should be in a bag attached to or within the bag containing the specimen.

Electronic photo files should be on a USB/thumb drive or shared cloud drive, grouped into folders by taxa group. The filenames for the photos should be the same as the collection numbers of the specimens that they depict, with “tie-breaker” numbers if there are multiple photos (e.g. RH05-01a, RH05-01b, etc.) for the same specimen. The collection number should be written legibly on a piece of paper and photographed along with the specimen. When assigning a personal collecting number to each specimen, it can be any numbering system you choose; but it should be a unique number for each specimen. You could develop a system that includes your initials, the year and a number, i.e. Eblin 4756 or M.M2-12-98-a, etc.

4. Reference Appendix 2 in the General Technical Report PNW-GTR-572, January 2003 for additional information on collecting tips. (contact Darci for a hardcopy of GTR-572)

5. Thoroughly dry specimens using a food dehydrator prior to shipping.

6. Package specimens individually. Place the dried specimen, the associated field tag, Fungi Description Form, agency site form and photographs in gallon size zip lock bags. Trapping a little air in the bag helps protect the specimens during shipment.

7. Complete the Fungi Collection Tracking spreadsheet. Enter your field unit and specimen information into the appropriate tabs. Print the completed tabs and send with your shipment. Send an electronic copy of the completed spreadsheet to darci.pankratz@usda.gov.

8. Contact Darci Pankratz at darci.pankratz@usda.gov regarding shipment of vouchers for verification.

Checklist of Products to be submitted with each dried specimen:

□ Fungi Description Form – hard copy

□ Fungi field tags – hard copy

□ Photographs of fresh specimens – either on CD or developed film/slides

□ GeoBOB Site Form or NRM TESP EO Form – hard copy

• habitat description

• relocation directions

Checklist of Products to be submitted with each shipment:

□ Fungi Collection Tracking spreadsheet – shipping checklist (printout of completed tabs) and electronic copy

□ Packaged specimens

Note: Package the bagged specimens in a shipping box. They should be packed tightly enough not to shift or bounce around, yet loose enough not to crush them into something that looks like a breakfast cereal (MycoFlakes?).

Your e-mail notification will assist in planning task order shipments. Taxa experts generally have 30 days to complete verification of a task order once it is processed. Task orders will be shipped monthly or when there are enough specimens to meet the minimum (three to four specimens).

If you need further assistance contact Darci Rivers-Pankratz at darci.pankratz@usda.gov.

Completing Fungi Field Tag

Field tags are very useful while foraying or surveying. They are designed to fit into a collection box.

Complete one per collection.

The tag’s main function is to ensure that critical data such as location, substrate, and color notes are not lost in the bustle of a field day.

The field tag is used in addition to the site form; it is not a substitute.

The following are the fields on the field tag with an explanation of the information asked for.

Taxon: Tentative identification of fungus Date: Collection date Collector: Collector of the specimen Collection number: Collection identification number: (please be brief, like a license plate): if you don’t have a personal numbering system you could develop a system that includes your last name or initials, year and a number, i.e. Eblin 4756 or M.M2-12-98-a, etc.

State and County where collection made:

Land owner: Name of Federal agency and subunit: Siuslaw NF, Alsea RD, etc.

UTM coordinates of specimen (Datum NAD83) or Latitude/Longitude Location: A geographical place name, road number; as specific as possible.

Substrate: Circle appropriate category. If necessary, gently excavate the base of the specimen to determine the substrate.

Habitat: Dominant trees, herbs, and shrubs and related notes.

Notes: Fresh specimen notes: color, taste, odor, shape, detail of habitat or substrate, or other site and specimen information. Use the back as necessary.
