Occurrence Notes
Carya aquatica (Michx. f.) Nutt. (water hickory) – Present in Barataria Unit, false report for Chalmette Unit
Voucher specimen from Chalmette Unit Bretting #236 at Tulane University was misidentified (as Carya aquatica) and redetermined to be Carya illinoinensis by D.M. Ferguson (2008). Moss (1989) reports this species as growing in the forested area between the two entrances to the unit. Certainly this is a false report of Carya illinoinensis.; Data Source: Urbatsch, L. E., D. M. Ferguson and S. M. Zumo. 2007. Vascular plant inventories of Jean Lafitte Historical Park and Preserve, Barataria and Chalmette Units.
