Buchanan H and Graybosch R. 1981. Plant Community changes at Bryce Canyon National Park from 1957-1980 Part I Project CX-1200-8-B016 Revised Checklist of the Vascular Plants of Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah. Ogden, UT
Prior to 1960 when the senior author wrote a Ph.D. thesis on the plant ecology of the Paunsaugunt Plateau forests of Bryce Canyon National Park relatively little plant taxonomic work had been done in the area. A checklist was prepared in 1971 which included 218 species of higher plants. During the field seasons 1978, 1979, and 1980, additional plants were collected during a second plant community study of the forests. The junion author spent the summer of 1980, at the park to collect plants in other plant communities and to organize the herbarium collection. This checklist includes the additional species collected and updates the nomenclature of the vascular plants presently know to occur within the boundaries of Bryce Canyon National Park.
