Scientific Name | Common Name | Summary |
---|---|---|
Collinsia parviflora | Blue-eyed Mary | Two collections in ARCTOS - both from along the Haines highway. |
Digitalis purpurea | Foxglove | Only a handful of collections in ARCTOS. Many reports in AKEPIC database from throughout most of the region (though not Yakutat). Most reports are from communities and adjacent road systems. |
Linaria vulgaris | Butter and Eggs | Many reports in AKEPIC database, primarily from upper Lynn Canal, but also reported from Juneau, Skagway, and Ketchikan. |
Penstemon gormanii | Gorman's Beardtoungue | No georeferenced collections in ARCTOS. Hulten indicates a collection from the vicinity of White Pass (though it's unclear which side of the border it is on). The overall range of this species appears to generally be north of the region. |
Penstemon procerus | Little-flower Penstemon | A 1948 collection from Haines is the only one in ARCTOS of this species from the region. |
Penstemon serrulatus | Serrulate Penstemon | On georeferenced collection in ARCTOS from near Hyder (though in BC). Location information for other collections not available through website. |
Plantago eriopoda | Saline Plantain | Collections from Yukon and far northern BC. All seem to be well inland, so this species is probably unlikely to occur in the region. |
Plantago lanceolata | Narrowleaf Plantain | Collection in ARCTOS from Hyder and Hanus Bay (Baranof Island), with additional AKEPIC reports from Prince of Wales (a single report) and Juneau (two reports) |
Plantago macrocarpa | Alaska Plantain | Collections in ARCTOS from across the region. |
Plantago major | Common Plantain | Collections in ARCTOS from as early as 1939. Reports in AKEPIC database from across the region in areas that have been subject to development. |
Plantago maritima | Goosetongue | Many collections in ARCTOS from throughout the region. |
Veronica americana | American Speedwell | Collections in ARCTOS from across the region. |
Veronica anagallis-aquatica | Water Speedwell | No georeferenced collections in ARCTOS. A single point from Hydaburg in the AKEPIC database refers to a 1968 report from Hulten. This appears to be the only record of this species in the region. |
Veronica arvensis | Corn Speedwell | A 1983 collection in ARCTOS from Craig and Anderson's 1918 publication (referenced in AKEPIC) appear to be the only published reports from the region. |
Veronica chamaedrys | Germander Speedwell | An old (pre-1950) report from Sitka by Hulten (in AKEPIC database) as well as collections from Ketchikan (1979), and Juneau area (2012) in ARCTOS. |
Veronica officinalis | Common Speedwell | AKEPIC database has a number of reports from the Ketchikan road system, and another from Kake. ARCTOS has a collection from near Hoonah, and the species has also been reported from Sitka. |
Veronica peregrina | Neckweed | AKEPIC databse includes an old report from Skagway by Anderson (1920). No (georeferenced) collections in ARCTOS. Hulten's map includes records at Juneau and Ketchikan as well. |
Veronica persica | Birdeye Speedwell | No (georeferenced) collections in ARCTOS. Anderson (1918) reported this species in Juneau (referenced in AKEPIC database). |
Veronica scutellata | Skullcap Speedwell | No collections in ARCTOS from the region. Nearest collections indicated on eFlora BC map are one from Haida Gwaii and a few others well inland in Yukon Territory. |
Veronica serpyllifolia | Thyme-leaf Speedwell | A few georeferenced collections in ARCTOS from across the region (though there are big gaps). |
Veronica wormskjoldii | Alpine Speedwell | Collections in ARCTOS from across much of the region, though more from the mainland than islands. |
