Links Related to Botany Bootcamp

Easy to understand illustrated list by Lena Strewe of Rutgers University. This is the handout we worked of of.

Full on University of Wisconsin course on plant identification and classification.
Very browsable (but somewhat out of date) list orders, families, genus and species with example photographs. Also includes usefull family key.
Gives you an idea of when plants evolved and what they are related to.
You can go through to genus starting from the kingdom Plantae.
Read the history of European plant classification.
Review terms you already know and learn new ones.
Part of http://waynesword.palomar.edu/index.htm, a great site for plant science and botanical ‘gee-wizz’ facts.
If it isn’t on this list, it isn’t. Includes links to online herbariums and the International Plant Name Index.
Another interactive key for finding families; a little easier to use than the one on plantsystemics.org
Mostly good for grasses
More of a poster that has some of the most common families identified by ovary position.
