The book allows students, ranchers, consultants, and others with little or no botanical background to identify the plants found in the region's lakes, ponds, rivers, marshes, swamps, and bogs. The <em>Flora </em>describes over 300 vascular plant species, both native and introduced, and a number of rapidly spreading invasive wetland plants, such as Kariba-weed (<em>Salvinia molesta</em>). Each species is illustrated with a line-drawing, a detailed description, and a county-level distribution map. A simplified key is used to place a plant into one of nine, easily recognizable groups.</p>
