ARIZONA LOCALITIESOF INTEREST TO BOTANISTS
Compiled by T. H. KEARNEY
Bureau of Plant Industry U. S. Department of Agriculture
of herbariumspecimens are are probably only approximate. The compiler is indebted to the U. S.
Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, for
much informationin regard to the altitudes of Arizona localities, and to the U. S. Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, for data on the location
and altitude of ranger stations, including many that
have been discontinued.The latter are indicated by
an asterisk.ArizonaPlace Names, by Will C. Barnes,
has been consulted freely in preparingthis list.1
The following list is believed to be fairly comprehensive as regardsthe names of localities mentioned
by collectors of Arizona plants on labels of specimens, and in publications.The names of counties,
and usually the section of the county, are given in
parenthesis. Altitudes, when known, are stated in
feet. Those given for mountainpeaks or ranges are
of the highest summit, unless otherwise indicated.
Altitudes as given on topographicmaps of the US.
Geological Survey were preferred whenever obtainable, but many of the data were taken from labels
