Abstract
Abstract Floristic data for Erath County, Texas, is unknown or limited. In this investigation plants were collected from 35 sites in Erath County from September 2003 to April 2008. Plants were identified and categorized based on the following status: introduced, endemic, threatened, and endangered species, as well as county records and major range extensions. One hundred and nineteen new county records were recorded for Erath County. Sixty five species were major range extensions, occurring greater than one county away from the border of Erath County. Twenty-six species were introduced while 93 species were native. Six of the native species were endemic to Texas, with Penstemon guadalupensis classified as endemic to north-central Texas and the Edwards Plateau. There were no rare, threatened, or endangered plants found. Convolvulus arvensis was the only noxious weed found, being state-listed as a noxious species.
