Extractions: S.F. Coates, M.B. Main, J.J. Mullahey, J.M. Schaefer, G.W. Tanner, M.E. Sunquist, and M.D. Fanning This publication examines the current status of the coyote, Florida's newest fur-bearing predator. The coyote (Canis latrans) is becoming a common occurrence on Florida's landscape. Traditionally associated with the American West, the coyote has become an established species in the eastern U.S., including Florida (Hill et al. 1987). Range expansion can be attributed to the coyote's nonspecific needs in habitat and food; large litter size and short generation time; decreased competition across its range from other predatorsthe gray wolf (Canis lupus) and red wolf, (Canis rufus) , grizzly bear (Ursus arctos) and puma (Felis concolor) Coyotes are members of the dog family, and are one of eight species of Canidae in the U.S. Physical variations in coyotes occur in their size, sex, and pelage (coat). Body length is usually 39.4 to 59.8 inches with a 15.7-inch tail (Bekoff 1982). Size varies across geographic range and between subspecies. Adult coyotes weigh 24 to 37 lbs. and adult males are heavier and larger than females. Compared to other canids, coyotes are larger than foxes but smaller than wolves. Tracks of dogs and coyote differ in that coyote tracks tend to be longer and narrower ( Plate 1 Appendix A Plate 1 .

Salt Cedar - A Noxious Weed In Washington Response to Physical Methods. Studies in west texas have indicated that water inundationmay be effective in controlling saltcedar. Station, NMSU coop. ext. http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/plants/weeds/aqua013.html
Extractions: Washington State Department of Ecology Water Quality Home Technical Information About Tamarix (Salt Cedar) Description and Variation Saltcedar species are spreading shrubs or small trees, 5-20 feet tall, with numerous slender branches and small, alternate, scale-like leaves. The pale pink to white flowers are small, perfect and regular, arranged in spike-like racemes. The distinct petals and sepals occur in fours or fives. The fruit is a capsule (Hitchcock and Cronquist 1961). Tamarix taxonomy is currently in a state of confusion. The number of species in the genus has fluctuated widely because members of the genus have few constant differentiating features, and taxonomists have disagreed over which features are most important. Eight species have been listed as introduced into the U.S. and Canada. These species can be effectively divided into two groups. Tamarix aphylla , an evergreen tree, does not sexually reproduce in this climate, so it is not seriously invasive. Deciduous, shrubby species, including T. pentandra
