Comments
Map includes records for both Panicum amarum and P. amarulum, which have very similar distributions in the maritime and estuarine zones of eastern Virginia. The species maps are incomplete at this time, since both spp. have been widely lumped under a broad concept of P. amarum in Virginia floristic studies. Extensive herbarium work will be required to completely map these taxa.
