Checklist of All Taxa from Survey of Willow and Tahquitz Creeks, San Jacinto Mountains
Tom Chester, Dave Stith, William Schlegel, RT Hawke, and Mike Crouse This is the list of all taxa found in our survey of Willow and Tahquitz Creeks, San Jacinto Mountains in 2009; see A Quantitative Flora of Willow and Tahquitz Creeks, San Jacinto Mountains for details on the survey, and for an explanation of the columns.
Version for printing, without lines and other text on this page: html (6 pages) or pdf Clickbook booklet (2 double-sided page). (See printing instructions for an explanation of these options)
This checklist is sorted first by category - ferns, dicots, and monocots - and then by family and scientific name. The Family and Scientific Name are from the 1993 Jepson Manual. An asterisk before the Common Name indicates a non-native taxon.
Twenty two species have notes on their determinations, abundances, or have additional information given for them. The scientific name of those species, followed by a superscript + sign (that might be underlined by your browser indicating the link), is linked to an entry in a separate file giving those notes.
The other columns give the following information:
Column Meaning #S The total number of surveys in which each taxon was found. #Pl This is our estimate of the minimum number of plants for each taxon in each of our surveys. The maximum value is 99 plants. The main intent of this column is to indicate the species for which we found few plants. Sum #Pl This is the sum, over all 15 surveys, of the minimum number of plants for each taxon in each survey. Since it is a sum of minimum numbers, it is not a true estimate of the abundance for very abundant plants. The maximum value is 15 * 99 = 1485. #Loc This is the minimum number of locations for each taxon in each survey. The maximum value is 9 locations. The main intent of this column is to indicate the species for which we found few plants or locations. Sum #Loc This is the sum, over all 15 surveys, of the minimum number of locations for each taxon in each survey. Since it is a sum of minimum numbers, it is not a true estimate of the abundance for very abundant plants. The maximum value is 14 * 9 + 3 = 129, since the maximum value for one of the Willow Creek surveys was 3, instead of the usual 9, due to its short survey. R If a taxon grows in riparian areas, including creeks, wet meadows, seeps, springs, or in moist drainages, a R is given in this column. Such a designation does not imply that a species grows only in such areas. For example, Carex fracta grows in dryish areas as well as wet areas. This checklist only gives the summary of the abundance data, and so does not have the individual abundance numbers from each survey.
