I identified some new species I've not found at the Witchwood in the past!
And some old friends:
And some fine-looking creatures:
Narrow-fruited Water-Starwort (Callitriche palustris) |
This American Jumpseed (Persicaria virginiana) isn't recorded as ocurring in Hillsborough County. I'd like to take a herbarium specimen, but I don't want to disrupt the small population. |
An unidentified bladderwort (Utricularia sp.) - carnivorous! |
Virginia Marsh St. John's-Wort (Hypericum virginicum) |
Whorled Wood Aster (Oclemena acuminata) |
I'd like to collect a sample of this American Groundnut (Apios americana) for a herbarium as it is not recorded on the Hillsborough County checklist. Ideally I'd catch it blooming... |
Broadleaf Arrowhead (Sagittaria latifolia) |
Blue Vervain (Verbena hastata) |
A fishing spider (Dolomedes sp.) - I wonder what's going on with its back right legs |
