DEDICATION 



The National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands is 

 respectfully dedicated to Neil Hotchkiss and Francis M. Uhler, who 

 made this work possible by their contributions to wetland botany 

 and ecology. These two scientists focused their long and 

 productive careers on the study of wetlands long before our current 

 emphasis on wetland systems began. They aided in producing the 

 Fish and Wildlife Service's first wetland classification system, 

 developed initial lists and guidebooks to the wetland plants of the 

 United States, and produced many studies on the ecology and 

 management of wetlands and their value to wildlife. It is my 

 sincere pleasure and humble gratitude to acknowledge the dependence 

 of this current work on their long and untiring efforts.
