Flora of Great Britain and Ireland
(Redirected from Flora of the Isle of Man)
The flora of Great Britain and Ireland is one of the best documented in the world. There are 1390 native species and over 1100 well-established non-natives documented on the islands. A bibliographic database of the species has been compiled by the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland.[1] The lists (spread across multiple pages due to size) give an English name and a scientific name for each species, and two symbols are used to indicate status (e for extinct species, and * for introduced species).
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (ferns and allies) covers ferns and allies (Lycopodiopsida, Equisetopsida and Pteridopsida)
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (conifers) covers the conifers (Pinopsida)
The remaining parts cover the flowering plants (Magnoliopsida):
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (dicotyledons)
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (Rosaceae), covering the dicotyledon family Rosaceae
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (Asteraceae), covering the dicotyledon family Asteraceae
- List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland (monocotyledons), covering the monocotyledons (Butomaceae to Orchidaceae)
