| Introduction |
| Florida, with over 3,800 native or naturalized
plant species, has the third largest flora in the United States. Of
these, about 4% occur only in Florida. Although much has been written
on Florida's plants, no modern single published flora exists for the
state. The purpose of the Flora of Florida project is to produce such
a flora. |
| |
| The proposed Flora of Florida will consist of eight volumes.
The first volume contains introductory chapters on the physical setting,
plant communities, botanical exploration, along with systematic treatments
of the ferns and gymnosperms. Volumes two through six will contain
the dicotyledonous plants, volumes seven and eight will contain the
monocotyledons (grasses, sedges, lilies, palms, etc.). |
| |
| The Flora of Florida is a collaborative project of the
Institute for Systematic Botany of the University of South Florida
and Fairchild Tropical Garden. Richard P. Wunderlin and Bruce F. Hansen
are Co-editors of the series. |
| |
| All native and naturalized plants known to occur in the
state will be included. Naturalized is defined as those non-native
species growing without cultivation and reproducing naturally in the
wild. This includes plants that have escaped from cultivation as well
as those that have been accidentally introduced. Species will be included
in the Flora if an herbarium specimen has been seen to document its
occurrence in Florida or if a specimen is cited from Florida in a
scientific publication. Published reports of species attributed to
Florida that are considered to be erroneous or highly questionable
because they are based on misidentified specimen(s) or lack documentation
by means of a specimen will be listed as "excluded species" and not
formally described. By doing this, we can account for every plant
reported for the state. |
| |
| The families are arranged in an evolutionary sequence
with the genera and species within each family arranged alphabetically.
Descriptions are given for each family, genus, and species. Illustrations
will be provided for at least one species from each genus. The Latinized
name, and non-Latinized common names will also be listed for each
species. The derivation of the Latinized name is also given. Latinized
names used in other publications and considered as synonyms are listed
for reference. Pertinent taxonomic references are listed. Habitat
information, distribution in the state and globally, and relative
abundance in Florida is given for each species. For taxa of limited
distribution in Florida, range statements by county are usually given.
If a taxon is non-native, the geographic region of nativity is given.
The primary flowering season, or sporulating season in the case of
ferns, is listed for each species. |
