| Résumé : |
"1. The lizard's tail, Saururus cernuus L., is an emergent, aquatic species of wide distribution in Eastern United States. 2. This species is a perennial herb with fibrous, adventitious roots, upright stems, well-developed rhizomes, cordate leaves arranged alternately along the zig-zag stems, and apparently non-viable seeds. 3. The rapid increase in the size of the colonies is due to its rhizomatous habit. Dissemination is accomplished mainly by fragmentation of rhizomes and the erect stems. 4. Dense stands of the lizard's tail provide environmental conditions conducive to the production of anopheline larvae and the well-developed leafy horizon greatly impedes the application of larvicides. 5. Attenuation of this species may be accomplished readily by the application of sodium arsenite." |
