S* S*

From the Scout Report for the Life Sciences:

Rare, Endangered, and Vulnerable Plants of the Republic of Georgia
[.pdf]
http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/Research/georgia/welcome.shtml

Because of its large number of endemic species and rapid rate of habitat
destruction, the Republic of Georgia is a biodiversity hot spot. In
collaboration with the Missouri Botanical Garden, the Institute of Botany
and the Botanical Garden of the Georgian Academy of Sciences has compiled
this list of 1200 at-risk species, arranged alphabetically by family.
Information on habitat and geographic distribution is included for all
species, and images are included for some.

=================================

The listing contains a few Iridaceae species.

Plants Database
http://plants.usda.gov/

The US Department of Agriculture's Plants Database (last mentioned in the
January 16, 1998 _Scout Report_) is continually adding improvements. Most
recently, the Web site has added an advanced query to allow users to search
for specific plant data based on many different search characteristics. This
new feature is also user friendly; by clicking on any of the fields, a
definition of the field is displayed. Also new are targeted links that allow
you to link directly from a queried plant profile to other Web sites with
information on that plant. Links to county-level maps have also been
included for a few states.
