The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR)<\/a> has announced that a rare parasitic plant resurfaced after it hadn’t been seen for 44 years.<\/p>\n

The newly-rediscovered plant was found in Manitowoc County “on the dunes overlooking Lake Michigan,” the Wisconsin DNR shared in a press release on May 3.<\/p>\n

Tom Underwood, a volunteer with the Rare Plant Monitoring Program,<\/a> identified the plant as a clustered broomrape (Orobanche fasciculata), the DNR wrote in its 2022 Annual Report.<\/p>\n

“Tom first set out to find this population, which was last seen in 1979, in 2018, but after \u2018an exhausting search up, over and along deep, dry and unconsolidated sand,\u2019 he gave up,” the report added.<\/p>\n

What made the search even more difficult was the lack of information surrounding the plant’s last known location.<\/p>\n

“Clustered broomrape is a tiny plant that could easily be buried by shifting sand\u2026and we didn\u2019t have very precise information on where it was found,” the report noted.<\/p>\n

“It was the proverbial needle in a haystack<\/a> survey.”<\/p>\n

Broomrapes are the largest family of parasitic plants, according to Mark T. Strong, a botanist at the Smithsonian<\/a> National Museum of Natural History.<\/p>\n

The Wisconsin DNR<\/a> describes these parasitic plants as having four to 10 pedicels (stalks that support the flower) with flowers that have a “loose, flat-topped corymb” (flower cluster with a long stalk) surpassing the stem.<\/p>\n

Of the 2,366 plants species in Wisconsin, nearly 15% of them are considered rare and compiled in the “endangered, threatened<\/a> or of special concern list,” the DNR released stated.<\/p>\n

In 2022, over 220 reports of rare plants were submitted by volunteers throughout Wisconsin, including new areas that had never been documented before.<\/p>\n

“These new discoveries are very exciting. They help increase our understanding of the number and locations of rare plant species in Wisconsin so we can better monitor and protect them,” Kevin Doyle, DNR natural heritage conservation botanist and rare plant monitoring program coordinator, stated in the Wisconsin DNR press release.<\/p>\n

“Volunteers also revisit known locations, another important part of the conservation process.<\/a> If we don\u2019t check on these populations, we won\u2019t know when they are in trouble,” he added.<\/p>\n
