Distribution Patterns of Ohio Cruciferae

The Ohio Cruciferae may be divided into three general groups, (1) the indigenous flora, (2) the introduced flora or “weeds” and (3) the escaped cultivars. The purpose of this paper is threefold, (1) to provide an annotated list of Cruciferae of Ohio with an accompanying list of synonyms, (2) to provide a record of distribution by counties and (3) to correlate distribution with Ohio’s soil regions.
