The ability to positively identify, and thereby discern among plant species is foundational to ecosystem knowledge. This page is dedicated to on-line and print resources to support development of identification skills as well as professional resources. Positive Identification is
Plant Lists
Having a list of the plants that have been observed at a site is a useful tool for building skills, because you can make more assumptions about the common species at a site without having a mentor.
