2012 Alaska Wetland Plant Indicator status

202kb .xls file. 6 February 2013

Official list: http://plants.usda.gov/wetland.html

Updated to include some taxa that were missing from the official site (February 2013). Also includes some additional symbols that tie commonly used subspecies to species used for delineation purposes. For example the symbol: ALINT (Alnus incana ssp tenuifolia) will link to ALIN2 (Alnus incana). List includes USDA PLANTS symbol, scientific name, author, common name, and indicator status for Alaska. For the four taxon that are regionalized for southcentral (Interior Alaska Lowlands) those statuses were used (ANPO is listed as OBL, BEPA as FAC, CACA11 as FAC, and RUAR6 as FACU).
