I’ve made a bunch more corrections and additions to Plants of the Bodie Hills: an Annotated Checklist, based on fieldwork and other research during 2017. CLICK HERE to visit the Downloads page. The January 2018 edition of the checklist is a 50-page, 8.1 mb PDF file.
The Bodie Hills encompass about 417 square miles in northern Mono County, California, western Mineral County, Nevada, and southern-most Lyon County, Nevada. This checklist now includes 701 taxa (species, subspecies, or varieties). Of these, 593 are definitely known to occur in the Bodie Hills and 108 are of uncertain status in the area (quite possibly present, but not yet confirmed). Altogether, there are 558 dicots (in 53 families), 130 monocots (in 15 families), and 13 vascular cryptogams (in 8 families).
Some places in the Bodie Hills worth visiting:
Chemung Lake, Chemung Mine, and Masonic Mountain
The upper end of Mormon Meadow
The northeastern Bodie Hills, along the Sweetwater-Aurora Road
The road to Aurora
Bridgeport Canyon
Mt. Biedeman from the road to Bodie
