We suggest the following additional resources for those who want to explore the vascular flora of Alaska in more detail and for those seeking information on the bryophyte and lichen floras of Alaska. By clicking the links below, you will leave the Flora of Alaska site.
Vascular Plants
ALA Herbarium
The ALA Herbarium contains more than 260,000 specimens of vascular and non-vascular plants and is the only major research herbarium in Alaska.
ARCTOS Museum Database
ARCTOS is consortium of museums and organizations that collaborate to serve data on over 3 million records from natural and cultural history collections. The Herbarium (ALA) at the University of Alaska Museum has specimen data publicly available through ARCTOS.
Panarctic Flora Checklist
A unified list of accepted names for arctic vascular plants. The list contains explanation of the taxonomic problems, resolutions, and lingering disagreements in the arctic flora.
Flora of North America
Flora of North America north of Mexico presents a single reference source for the vascular and moss floras of the United States, Canada, and Greenland.
UAAH Herbarium
UAAH houses approximately 15,000 plant specimens, primarily from Alaska, with emphasis on invasive species and under-collected regions.
Pacific Northwest Herbaria
The UAAH and BABY (Bruce A. Bennett Yukon Herbarium) botanical collections, along with other herbaria collections throughout the Pacific Northwest, can be viewed and searched through the PNW Herbaria database.
VASCAN Database
The Database of Vascular Plants of Canada (VASCAN) contains taxonomic and distribution information.
AKEPIC Database
The Alaska Exotic Plants Information Clearinghouse (AKEPIC) provides geospatial information, invasiveness ranking, and species guides for non-native plant species in Alaska and neighboring Canadian territories.
Bryophytes and Lichens
AKVEG Bryophyte Checklist
The Alaska Vegetation Plots Database (AKVEG) contains a unified, synonymized checklist of all bryophytes that are known to occur in Alaska.
AKVEG Lichen Checklist
The Alaska Vegetation Plots Database (AKVEG) contains a unified synonymized checklist of all lichens that are known to occur in Alaska.
North American Bryophyte Herbaria
The Consortium of North American Bryophyte Herbaria (CNABH) provides unified access to collections data for bryophytes across numerous North American herbaria.
North American Lichen Herbaria
The Consortium of North American Lichen Herbaria (CNALH) provides unified access to collections data for lichens across numerous North American herbaria.
