* Genera are filed under families according to the Index Nominum Genericorum IFBC = as published in Illustrated Flora of British Columbia, Vol. 5 (2000) FNA = as published in Flora of North America, Vol. 2 (1993) As we are constantly in the process of updating taxonomic names, the names listed here are how they are filed in the UBC herbarium cabinets, but do not represent the most recent taxonomic understanding or naming of each Family or Genus. We are still in the process of fixing spelling mistakes in each lists. If you notice an incorrect spelling, please contact us at ubc.herbarium@ubc.ca.
