This project was undertaken in cooperation with the Texas Conservation Data Center (TxCDC) as part of a larger project with the National Park Service to perform inventories of vascular plants and vertebrate animals. Surveys were undertaken between April and October, 2002. The primary objective of the current project was to provide an account of all vascular plant species occurring in LAMR and ALFL, based on a vouchered record for each species. Also among our goals were an account of species potentially occurring in the parkland; an analyis of the flora for disjunct taxa, range extensions, invasive non-native plants, and rare taxa; and refinement of concepts of major plant communities in the parkland. Several previous accounts exist of the flora of the parkland area, but because few of the reported records are vouchered, the primary approach of our study was to conduct intensive on-the-ground surveys accompanied by collection of vouchers.
