SUMMARY:Virtual Gila Native Plant Society meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Gila Native Plant Society’s first experiment with a Zoom meeting was
so successful we have decided to try it again. Dr. Edwin Leuck has agreed
to give a two-part presentation on cacti, one in May and one in June.
At the May 15 meeting, Dr. Leuck will present a talk entitled “The Cactace
ae: Diversity of Form, Function and Habitat,” about the characteristics tha
t make a cactus a cactus. These include bits of internal anatomy, external
morphology, and some physiology. He will discuss the major groups of c
acti and the diversity contained within, and the economic importance of som
e members of the family.
On June 19 at 7:00 MDT, also through Zo
om, his presentation on “The Cacti of New Mexico” will cover most of t
he native cacti present in New Mexico, their distributions, habitat specifi
cities, salient (hopefully diagnostic) characteristics, and lots of photos.
Included will be 13 genera and 40+ species.
Dr. Leuck, now a re
sident of Silver City, is emeritus Professor of Biology at Centenary Colleg
e of Louisiana in Shreveport, Louisiana. He taught courses in botany,
plant systematics, ecology, conservation biology, microbiology and introdu
ctory biology from 1980-2016. His interest in cacti is of long standing: hi
s doctoral dissertation dealt with the systematics of the small-flowered he
dgehog cacti in the genus Echinocereus. He continues to look for
cacti in New Mexico, especially in the Bootheel and southern Gila regions,
and is currently involved in a long-term study of a Peniocereus greggi
i (Arizona Queen of the Night) population near Rodeo, New Mexico.

Sadly, the Covid-19
pandemic has made it impossible, at least in the near future, for the Gila
Native Plant Society to conduct its usual summer field trips, but we will p
ost notices of where interesting plants may be found on the Field Trip page
of the website (www.gilanps.org/events/field-trips/) and on the Facebook p
age (Gila Native Plant Society).
The Gila Native Plant Society is com
mitted to promoting education, research and appreciation of the native flor
a of the Southwest; encouraging the preservation of rare and endangered pla
nt species; and supporting the use of suitable native plants in landscaping
. For information on programs, publications and membership, please visit ww
