Biota of North America Project: North American Plant Atlas - Dr. John T. Kartesz
The website and accompanying CD-ROM, Floristic Synthesis of North America (distributed separately) represent the first comprehensive digital account of the vascular flora of North America north of Mexico. Together, they present a continuously updated assessment of the 33,000 vascular plant taxa recognized for the area.
Among the most important features, the website presents an interactive identification program for the plants of North America, the most current taxonomy and nomenclature for each group, and distribution for each taxon. These works also offer an extensive collection of hundreds of biological attributes that function interactively with all of the unique plant taxa that grow within our area.
bplant.org - Alex Zorach
bplant.org is a plant website whose goal is to mobilize people to document, preserve, protect, and restore plant biodiversity, and through this, insect and other biodiversity as well. bplant.org aims to achieve these goals through collecting and presenting information on plant distribution and ecology, educating people on plant identification, and helping people make choices that preserve local native plant populations.
