Distribution of Bouteloua samples in Texas herbaria
This page is an example of a mapping system for tracking coverage of
Texas counties by in-state herbarium collections. The selectable items
below display a map of the state with counties highlighted to indicate
that an herbarium within the state has a sample of that
Bouteloua species in its collection. At present, the
collections of the following herbaria are in the database:
- TAMU Tracy Herbarium
- UT Plant Resources Center
- BRIT
- TAMU Department of Biology
- Pan American University
- TAMU Kingsville
- West Texas State University
- Sul Ross State College
- Sam Houston State University
If multiple herbaria have specimens for a given species in a given
county, the above list represents the order of precedence; if two
herbaria on the list both have a specimen from a given county, the
color of the qone closer to the top of the list will be displayed.
Naming is according to Hatch et. al.'s A Checklist of the Vascular
Plants of Texas (1990). The map of the state was taken from the Texas
Department of Transportation.
A clickable diversity map for genus Bouteloua is also available.
