Annotated Checklist of the Vascular Plants of Alabama. 2011. (Sida Bot. Miscellany, 36). 112 p. gr8vo. Paper bd.

The book presents the first comprehensive statewide checklist of vascular plants for Alabama in over 100 years. This annotated checklist of vascular plants includes notes on rarity, nativity and selected synonyms. The combined total of 3744 species and 1118 genera in 204 families indicates considerable floristic variety and elevates Alabama high among states with great overall plant diversity. As plant research and discovery in Alabama continues forward, this list will serve as a baseline for understanding the diversity of plant life in the state and will prove useful to botanists, conservation biologists, ecologists and anyone interested in or working on vascular plants in Alabama.
