Abstract

Thirteen distributional records from Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas are reported for seven native and five non-native plant species, many based on course-related collections by students. These include state records for three taxa: Cyperus brevifolioides and Paspalum dilatatum for Kansas, and Sphaeralcea parvifolia for Idaho. We also report ten county records, including significant range extensions for Dinebra panicoides. We also report what we believe to be pseudovivipary in Setaria pumila.
