Inmostpreviousinstallmentsof this series (Anderson 1984, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1995), "north Florida"
was panhandle Suwannee Anderson 2000
defined as the Florida west of the River. In the area of coverage
was expanded
to include selected counties of northeastern Florida. This installment returns to the original,
more restricted area of coverage, the area covered by Clewell (1985). Nomenclature generally follows
i.e.,
Wunderlin and Hansen (2003). Austin's study (1980) was used to identify Cuscuta species, and Flora of North
