VASCULAR PLANTS OF LAROSE FOREST Species of Note Native Species considered regionally and provincially significant are boldfaced. Regionally significant plants are inferred from Brunton 2005. Brunton’s work is the most recent flora for this part of Eastern Ontario but Larose Forest lies just beyond the boundaries covered by this work. However, it is reasonably safe to extrapolate that the plants found there have a similar status. Provincial ranking and definition follows the Ontario Natural Heritage Information Centre (NHIC) list which is updated on an ongoing basis. The letters SNC following a species, indicate that it was found, to date, only on South Nation Conservation property within Larose Forest. Regional Status: Regional significance follows Brunton’s definition: “plants known from 10 or fewer contemporary populations (post-1969) in the City of Ottawa”. Provincial status: S1 - Critically Imperiled in Ontario; usually 5 or fewer occurrences. S2 - Imperiled in Ontario; usually between 6-20 occurrences. S3 - Vulnerable in Ontario; 80 or fewer occurrences.
