The List Introduction. This is the first digital version of the Archbold Biological Station Plant List, but the list has several printed predecessors. As in previous lists, we envision this list as a repository for a variety of autecological, taxonomic, and distributional information. The list includes all vascular plants known to spontaneously occur at Archbold. The Plant List does not include cultivated (mostly exotic) plants on the Main Grounds or plants introduced on Red Hill that may persist but do not appear to be spreading. The first list of Archbolds plants was assembled by Sam P. Vander Kloet (Vander Kloet 1986). The second major list created a tabular organization and added information on life history, distribution, and nomenclature (Menges and Salzman 1992). The current list adds recent records and information on endangerment status, and brings the nomenclature into agreement with Wunderlin (1998). Top Explanation of Fields. The Plant List is
organized alphabetically by family within four higher groupings: Ferns and Fern Allies;
Gymnosperms; Angiosperms-Monocots; and Angiosperms-Dicots. Top Acknowledgements. We would like to thank Samara Hamze and Karin Kettenring for their help updating this list. Contributions to earlier plant lists by Ginny Salzman, Marcia Hestand, and Sam P. Vander Kloet were invaluable. Botanists who contributed to the ABS herbarium over the years have helped document this list indirectly. Over 70% of the ~4000 specimens in the Plant Ecology Lab Herbarium were collected by Leonard J. Brass. Others who made significant contributions to the Herbarium include Sam P. Vander Kloet, Ann F. Johnson, and Alan Herndon. Abrahamson, W. G., A. F. Johnson, J. N. Layne, and P. A. Peroni. 1984. Vegetation of the Archbold Biological Station: an example of the southern Lake Wales Ridge.
