Electronic Wetlands Herbarium

wetland plantanother wetland plant

1993 Midwest Edition
A detailed look at the plants typical of 11 different wetland types from bog to wet prairie. After an introduction to a particular type of wetland, the user can explore a list of species found in that ecosystem. Each entry gives detailed botanical information as well as a VGA or SVGA photo of the plant. The outstanding photos are indentification quality and most were supplied by the Morton Arboretum. Examples are taken from the U.S. Midwest region.

1995 Update for Continental USA
The same detailed information as the 1993 edition, but structured to help identify plant specimens, and expanded to include species found throughout the lower forty-eight States. Users answer a series of questions about their specimen to narrow down their choices to a small list. The 1995 Update is only available on the Purdue CD-ROM.
