10
NatureServe Species Profile for Buchnera americana
As treated here, includes Buchnera floridana (following Kartesz, Checklist 1994). If that relatively common entity is excluded, then Buchnera americana would be a much rarer plant. LEM 14Mar94. <br><br>When recognized separately, B. americana...

NatureServe Species Profile for Empidonax traillii
Sometimes treated as E. BREWSTERI, a junior synonym. Formerly regarded as conspecific with E. ALNORUM as E. TRAILLII, Traill's Flycatcher (AOU 1998). See Phillips (1948) for a review of geographic variation in morphology, with the original...
17
NatureServe Species Profile for Holcus lanatus
HOLCUS LANATUS is rarely mistaken for any other species with the possible exception of H. MOLLIS. H. LANATUS can be distinguished by the purplish coloration on the panicles and veins of the sheaths, soft hairs all over, and lack of rhizomes. The two...
