2 INTRODUCTION Why these trees? These are the most common trees you will see on hikes in the mountains around Huntsville. Structure of the class Objectives: 1. Learn what to look for, and the terminology used in field guides 2. Identify trees to at least the genus level Caveats: Tree ID is usually 6 hours per week for 30 weeks Philosophy Look before deciding you don t know what a tree is. Perspective: 6,500 7,000 spp. of birds worldwide; approx. 250,000 spp. of vascular plants worldwide
3 TOOLS & RESOURCES Field Guides Peterson s, Audubon, National Wildlife Foundation, etc. Tree Bark ID website: Eek! Tree Key: (for kids) Google Images (use scientific name if possible to eliminate a lot of gibberish) Clipboard with rubber band Plastic baggies (quart or gallon size) Hand lens Binoculars or camera Knife or pruners
4 PLANT CLASSIFICATION & ID Binomial nomenclature Generic name (Genus) example: Quercus Specific epithet (species) example: alba Scientific name example: Quercus alba L. Common name example: White Oak (can be confusing) ID Techniques Leaves/buds Flowers/buds Bark/Twigs Fruit Habitat/Range Habit or Form
5 What do you call a cat that climbs to the top of a tree? Branch Manager! DIAGNOSTIC CHARACTERISTICS WHAT TO LOOK FOR
6 DICHOTOMOUS KEY simplified example: evergreen or deciduous alternate or opposite branching Opposite Tulip Poplar Flowering Dogwood Alternate simple or compound leaf lobed or non-lobed leaf (probably a Maple) bark type leaf margins, and so on
7 LEAF TYPES ID Techniques Leaf: arrangement, shape, size, color, texture, odor, variability Flowers: arrangement, type, size, color, timing Bark/Twigs: thickness, type, color, texture, pattern, variability Fruit: arrangement, type, size, color, timing Habitat/Range: where it grows of entire tree Image Credit: Wikipedia Habit or Form: overall shape
8 LEAF TYPES: SIMPLE Simple Leaf midrib Simple, entire, elliptical-obovate (Black Tupelo) petiole Axillary bud Simple, entire, cordate (Eastern Redbud) Simple, entire, 4-lobed (Tulip Poplar) Simple, serrate, 3-lobed (Red Maple)
9 LEAF TYPES: COMPOUND Odd, pinnately compound, 5-7 opposite leaflets serrated margins (Shagbark Hickory) Odd, pinnately compound, 7-9 alternate leaflets (Yellowwood) Odd, palmately compound, 5-leaflets (American Buckeye)
10 BEYOND LEAVES Leaves are only one piece of the puzzle. Even during dormancy, leaf arrangement can be seen Some species are distinguished by leaf scar Acronym for opposite leaf arrangement: Mad Crazy Horse! Maple Ash Dogwood Crazy = Caprifoliaceae Horse Chestnut = Buckeye a cappella, anyone? Image Credit:
