APPENDIX A. Flora Associated with Chamaecyparis thyoides: A Distribution Ciiecklist 



Compiled by Aimlee D. Laderman and Daniel B. Ward. 



The following is a list of plants that have been observed growing in association with Atlantic white cedar in 

 each state of its range. These records have been compiled from published studies of white cedar and its 

 habitats, from herbarium records, and from recent communications by those currently engaged in field 

 obsen/ation and research related to this species. A partial bibliography for the associated flora of each state 

 appears in laderman (1982).^ The National List of Scientific Plant Names (NLSPN) (USDA, SCS 1982) has 

 been used as the standard for botanical nomenclature wherever possible. Synonyms are included where 

 different names have historically been used forthe same plant. Common names follow Gray's Manual (Fernald 

 1 950) and the National Wetlands Inventory Plant List (Reed 1 986), with modifications reflecting regional usage. 

 The first Checl<list (Laderman and Ward 1987) was a product of the first Atlantic White Cedar Wetlands 

 Symposium (Laderman 1987). The process of producing the list stimulated new botanical investigation in 

 cedar wetlands and provided encouragement and a worl<ing body of information for studies in progress. 

 Addenda and alterations to the first Checl<list are the fruit of such interaction and the resulting additional data. 



States are indicated by standard U.S. codes, listed North to South. MA-CC = Cape Cod; MA-W= Mas- 

 sachusetts west of Cape Cod. FL-E = peninsular East Florida; FL-W = "panhandle" West Florida. 



ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: The resources and cooperation of the staffs of the United States National Hertjarium, 

 Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC; the Gray Museum and Library of the Marine Biological Laboratory, 

 Woods Hole, MA; and the Library of the American Academy in Rome, Italy are gratefully acknowledged. 

 Interaction with The Nature Conservancy and many state Natural Heritage Programs has been particularly 

 productive. This list owes much to each of the participants in the Atlantic White Cedar Wetlands Symposium 

 (Laderman 1987).
