Observation The survey found 403 species in 88 families.
Observation Asteraceae had 61 species.
Observation Cyperaceae had 46 species.
Observation Poaceae had 44 species.
Observation Fabaceae had 20 species.
Observation Ericaceae had 14 species.
Observation Rubus discolor was a new state record.
Observation The survey added 40 new county records.
Observation Ordination grouped herbaceous plots into hydrophytic and xerophytic groups along a soil moisture gradient.
