Annotated Checklist of Vascular Flora: Dinosaur National Monument

In 2006, the National Park Service (NPS) estab-lished a cooperative agreement with the Univer-sity of Wyoming, through the Rocky Mountains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, to produce a series of technical reports summarizing the vas-cular plant fl ora of each of the 16 national park units of the Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN). These reports are based on existing in-formation in the park service's NPSpecies data-base system and augmented by further data min-ing, reviews of state and regional herbaria, and new fi eld surveys to resolve the status of many reported and unconfi rmed species. The objective of these reports is to summarize the current state of knowledge of the fl ora of each park for the benefi t of NPS biologists and interpretive staff, outside researchers, and the general public. The following report addresses the vascular fl ora of Dinosaur National Monument, in northeast Utah and northwest Colorado. Other NCPN park units are addressed in separate reports.
