: Definition for waif should say ..."does not"...

: Glossary - berry: The comma at the end of the definition for should be removed.

Glossary: pistillate flower definition should read as follows: one with 1 or more pistils, but no stamens.

Artificial Key to the Vascular Plant Families in Our Region: The page pointers for Groups 1-7 on pages 3 and 4 are 2 pages higher than they should be. They should read as follows:
Group 1 p. 4; Group 2 p. 8; Group 3 p. 11; Group 4 p. 11; Group 5 p. 11; Group 6 p. 20; Group 7 p. 35

Artificial Key to the Vascular Plant Families in Our Region - Group 5, lead 2a: The page number provided for Subgroup 5a should be p. 12; the page number for Subgroup 5b should be p. 13.

Artificial Key to the Vascular Plant Families in Our Region - Subgroup 5d, lead 1b: Most species of Acer (Sapindaceae) should key under lead 1b but were inadvertently omitted from this section of the key. To accommodate Acer, the following new couplet can be inserted after lead 40b on page 16:
44a Leaves palmately lobed (Acer) ... Sapindaceae, p. 266
44b Leaves not lobed

lead 28b: The range for stamens in lead 28b should be "2-5" in order to include Caprifoliaceae in lead 30b.

Group 6, lead 15a: Modify wording to exclude apetalous flowers: "Perianth 2- or 4-merous, polypet; stamens gen 2, 4, 6, or 8 (occ more numerous but then perianth present)"

Artificial Key to the Vascular Plant Families in Our Region - Group 6, lead 17a: To properly key Solanum dulcamara, change wording of key leads 17a and 17b to:

Group 6e, lead 17b: Change wording to read "Petals present or absent; ..."

Group 6e, lead 21a: Lead 21a should state "Fls 3-merous or petals absent; ..." and lead 21b should state "Fls (3-)5-merous, petals present; ..."

Key to families Subgroup 7a, lead 28b: Replace "infl not an umbel" with "infl various"

Diphasiastrum, lead 2a: Diphasiastrum alpinum was documented from several locations in northern Idaho in 2019. Change distribution statement to "circumboreal, s to OM, Thurston Co, WA, Cas of WA, n ID, nw MT (GNP), and Que"

Diphasiastrum, lead 2a: The name Diphasiastrum ×takedae Ivanenko (Bot. Zhurn. 77(8): 123-126. 1992.) applies to hybrids of Diphasiastrum alpinum × Diphasiastrum sitchense, based on a type specimen from Kamtschatka (LE). Application of the name to North American hybrids appears justified but warrants further investigation.

Selaginella, lead 2a: The range statement should read "se BC, c ID, sw MT, ne NV, n CO, MI, and Newf; seldom coll s of Can;" - "sw" in the original range description is a typo.

Isoetes, lead 3a: Isoetes minima was recently collected (July 2017) from Adams Co, ID; the distribution statement for lead 3a can be changed to: e Cas from se BC to e WA, ne OR, and wc ID.

Isoetes, lead 6a/6b: The correct units for sporangia size is mm: 6a "..sporangia < 2.5 mm long..", 6b "...sporangia up to 10 mm long..."

Pteridium: The name Pteridium aquilinum subsp. pubescens Underw. J.A.Thomson, Mickel Mehltr., Bot. J. Linn. Soc. 1571 14 2008 is an isonym. The correct authorship is Pteridium aquilinum L. Kuhn ssp. pubescens Underw. Piper Beattie.

Myriopteris: Myriopteris intertexta recently (2024) collected in Klickitat County, WA and central Oregon.

Parathelypteris: Recent (2021) taxonomic work shows that Parathelypteris is synonymized within Amauropelta, resulting in the new combination A. nevadensis (Baker) S.E. Fawc. & A.R. Sm. for P. nevandensis.

Polystichum, lead 11b: An accurately identified specimen of P. braunii from Pend Oreille County has been located at the University of Idaho Herbarium. The range statement should be expanded to ".., coastal AK and BC, also se BC, ne WA, and n ID,..".

Callitropsis: The correct author for C. nootkatensis is (D. Don) Oerst - (D. Don) D.P. Little is incorrect.

Eschscholzia: Eschscholzia californica is considered native from the Columbia River Gorge and northern Willamette Valley to California. Occurrences north and east of this area are best considered introduced. The earliest collection of this species in Washington not including those of Sukskdorf is 1938. Suksdorf likely cultivated this species in Bingen, so collections from that area in the late 1800s and early 1900s are hard to interpret based on the specimen label data. Given the level of collecting in western Washington in the late 1800s and early 1900s, a showy species like this would have been collected outside of the Columbia River Gorge if it was naturally occurring. In light of this, Hitchcock\'s 1938 collection from a roadside in Mason County is best considered an introduced/escaped from cultivation population.

Papaver, lead 2b: The correct spelling for the subspecific epithet for P. radicatum is kluanense.

Berberis: Recent molecular work [Taxon 66(6): 1371-1392, 2017] advocates resurrecting Mahonia as a distinct genus from Berberis. All our native species will be transferred back to Mahonia as Mahonia aquifolium, Mahonia nervosa, Mahonia piperiana, Mahonia repens.

Delphinium, lead 7a: Last line - D. xburkei Greene is a hybrid between D. depauperatum and no 22 D. nuttallianum.

Corylus, lead 1b: Peter Lesica at MONTU determined that the lone specimen of C. cornuta (WTU 239659) reported from MT is a label error. The specimen was likely collected in Wyoming. The corrected distribution statement should read, "BC s, both sides Cas, to CA, also in n ID but not MT, e to Atl"
