| Abstract | The present investigation summarizes the existing, available knowledge of the occurrence and distribution of vascular plants growing without cultivation in Clinton County, Ohio. No previous floras of this county have been published. Field collections in Clinton County have been made by the writer from 1939 to the present time during vacations and spare time at varying intervals, the longest period of non-collecting having been from 1943 to 1946. Recent collections were made under tenure of a Muellhaupt Scholarship at the Ohio State University (see Acknowledgments). Specimens obtained by other persons have been examined in the herbaria of the Ohio State University and Wilmington College, Wilmington, Ohio. Of the total number of species found in Clinton County, about one-half have been obtained only by the present writer, the remaining one-half having been collected also or solely by other persons. The present annotated list adds many more previously unreported county distribution records to those listed by the writer in Jones (1942, 1943). In any area new species become established, others are exterminated by man or nature, and some are unavoidably overlooked; hence, no flora is ever really complete. It is thought that this study has been continued long enough to producea reasonably thorough account of the flora of Clinton County. The annotated, list includes a total of 813 species distributed among 108 families, 411 genera, with 21 species of Pteridophytes, 1 Gymnosperm, 189 Monocotyledons, and 602 species; of Dicotyledons. |
