Notes
12/4/25 TE: Removed variety P. setaceum var. setaceum from Park list, as there was no evidence for it here or in collections. Specimens at the variety level exist for P. setaceum var. ciliatifolium and P. setaceum var. muhlenbergii, and each of this have been separated into their own holdings. Variety setaceum is conceivable in park and will be added if evidence is found for it. More specimens should be reviewed for this group and annotated. Park Species Detail: RangeCode = lo; Range = Low elevations-850ft.-2,500ft. ATBI Sensitivity = Public, Park Species Data Source: Plant list compiled by BONAP from its County Database, and converted to NPSpecies by I&M Office.
