The Vascular Flora of Wayne County, Mississippi

<p>The vascular flora of Wayne County, Mississippi, was surveyed from 2013–2015, and the species of native and naturalized plants are listed. In total, 1,135 species were identified from field collections, previously collected herbarium specimens, and field observations. These belong to 556 genera and 165 families. Four of these species represent first recorded occurrences in the state of Mississippi: <em>Blyxa</em> <em>aubertii</em> Rich., <em>Gomphrena serrata</em> Pav. ex Moq., <em>Isoetes valida</em> (Engelm.) Clute, and <em>Polypogon interruptus</em> Kunth. GPS coordinates are given for important collection sites representing the diversity of plant communities in the county.
