Grand Canyon National Park Plant Checklist For Hermits Rest to Grandview This is a non-authoritative attempt to put together a list of species that are found at Grand Canyon National Park in the area from roughly Hermits Rest on the west, Grandview on the east, and the Colorado River on the north. It is non-authoritative since I have very little familiarity with the flora of Arizona; my expertise is with the flora of southern California. Furthermore, I make no claim of completeness or accuracy in this list. It was compiled quickly, in less than a week, solely to help me with trying to identify species along the Bright Angel Trail on 5-6 September 2007.
Of course, all lists have to start with something, so this may grow in the future to be a better checklist, especially with feedback from others.
This list began with the latest Grand Canyon National Park Checklist kindly provided by Lori Makarick on 22 August 2007. All families and scientific names are from that checklist, with the exception of using the name Encelia resinifera ssp. resinifera instead of Encelia frutescens var. resinosa, following Huisinga, Makarick and Watters 2006.
I then went through the Phillips, Phillips and Bernzott 1987 Grand Canyon Flora, and identified taxa that were present in this area. For each of those taxa, I noted in my database whether it was present near any of the following locations: Hermit Trail, Grand Canyon Village, Bright Angel Trail, South Kaibab Trail, Long Jim Canyon, Grandview, or unspecific South Rim. For those taxa, I entered the elevation range and bloom times given in that Flora.
I searched vouchers from Coconino County, AZ, using the Southwest Environmental Information Network (SEINet). I made separate searches using the terms Bright Angel, Kaibab, and Village. Those searches yielded 3,831 vouchers. I went through those and selected only the 949 that were actually in this area.
I compared the Park Checklist to the vouchers, accepting only exact matches for the scientific names, and marked each taxon with the number of vouchers. No attempt was made to resolve synonyms, so a number of the vouchers did not get properly associated to the name in the Checklist. I did not add any taxa from the vouchers; I only counted vouchers for exact matches to names already present in the Checklist.
Finally, I noted in the Park Checklist the species observed with at least 95% confidence in the determination by myself on the Bright Angel Trail on 5-6 September 2007. I also noted species in a checklist for the Bright Angel Trail for October 2000, also kindly provided by Lori Makarick.
The list below only contains those taxa from the Park Checklist that were found to be in the area in at least one of the above comparisons.
No attempt has been made to resolve taxa that have entries at the species level and also at the subspecies level. In many cases with both the species and a subspecies is given, only the subspecies exists here. In other cases, the nominate subspecies is given just as the species name, and multiple subspecies are present.
Of the 81 species with reliable determinations that I found on the Bright Angel Trail, 71 were in this list from other sources. If this is representative of the entire area, this implies that the overall list for this entire area is ~71/81 = ~88% complete. However, that is only a lower limit to the completeness since the Bright Angel Trail is undoubtedly more heavily botanized than other parts of this area.
Legend for the following table:
#: Sequential number for each entry. Again, note that some taxa are represented by two names, the species and again using a subspecies.
Scientific Name: from the Grand Canyon National Park Checklist with the exception noted above.
(*): non-native taxa are denoted with *.
Common Name: this column is very incomplete, since the Grand Canyon National Park Checklist did not have common names. I took common names from my southern California database, and then added common names for species I observed on the Bright Angel Trail.
Elevation: the minimum and maximum elevation given in Phillips, Phillips and Bernzott 1987. A few taxa have had elevations extended using Huisinga, Makarick and Watters 2006.
Bloom Period: the bloom months given in Phillips, Phillips and Bernzott 1987 (1 = January; 12 = December).
BA Guide #: the sequential species number given in my plant trail guide to the Bright Angel Trail, except for species given as 999, which were only found off-trail.
BA Trail Voucher: 1 = mentioned as occurring on or near the Bright Angel Trail in Phillips, Phillips and Bernzott 1987; 2 = given in the checklist for the Bright Angel Trail for October 2000 provided by Makarick; 3 = voucher from the Trail; 4 = mentioned as an accompanying species in a voucher for a different species from the Trail.
# All Vouchers: Number of vouchers for that taxon found among the 949 vouchers.
# Total Refs: Number of separate columns checked in my database for different locations from Hermits Rest to Grandview per above, but not including my plant trail guide. Ten taxa found by myself on the Bright Angel Trail have a zero in this column; all of them are in the Grand Canyon National Park Checklist, but simply didn't have any vouchers or explicit mention of being in this area.
