U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Natural Resource Program Center Fort Collins, Colorado The Natural Resource Publication series addresses natural resource topics that are of interest and applicability to a broad readership in the National Park Service and to others in the management of natural resources, including the scientifi c community, the public, and the NPS conservation and environmental constituencies. Manuscripts are peer-reviewed to ensure that the information is scientifi cally credible, technically accurate, appropriately written for the intended audience, and is designed and published in a professional manner.
The Natural Resource Technical Report series is used to disseminate the peer-reviewed results of scientifi c studies in the physical, biological, and social sciences for both the advancement of science and the achievement of the National Park Service’s mission. The reports provide contributors with a forum for displaying comprehensive data that are often deleted from journals because of page limitations. Current examples of such reports include the results of research that addresses natural resource management issues; natural resource inventory and monitoring activities; resource assessment reports; scientifi c literature reviews; and peer- reviewed proceedings of technical workshops, conferences, or symposia.

Abstract
In 2005–2006, the National Park Service’s Northern Colorado Plateau Network received funding to develop a revised checklist of the vascular plant fl ora of Fossil Butte National Monument. This entailed a thorough review of existing literature, re-examination of specimens from the Fossil Butte National Monument herbarium and other state and national museum collections, and additional fi eld work to corroborate unverifi ed species reports or locate new species. Based on this study, 546 vascu- lar plant taxa have been confi rmed or reliably reported as occuring in the monument (509 are known from validated herbarium specimens and 37 from unvouchered literature reports). Another 68 species formerly considered part of the monument fl ora have now been shown to be falsely reported. The cur- rent fl ora of Fossil Butte National Monument represents about 19.5% of the known fl ora of Wyoming, and 36.7% of the fl ora of the Wyoming Basins ecoregion within Wyoming. At least eight of these taxa are considered species of concern by the state natural heritage program. Introduced plants make up 13.2% of the monument fl ora (72 species), of which 10 species are considered noxious weeds by the State of Wyoming. Further surveys in Fossil Butte National Monument are likely to fi nd additional new species (114 are known from similar habitats outside the monument boundary), especially among late- season fl owering, weedy, or wetland taxa.

We would like to thank the following individuals for their assistance with this project. Dr. Angela Evenden, botanist and former leader of the Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) program in Moab, was an active proponent of this project and helped secure funding for fi eld work and herbari- um studies in 2006. Arvid Aase, curator of museum collections for Fossil Butte National Monument, provided access to all mounted and unmounted herbarium specimens from the monument herbarium. George Jones and Bonnie Heidel, of the Wyoming Natural Diversity Database, helped track down some 15-year-old sedge collections. Katie Moon, of Brigham Young University, and Rebecca Harms, of the NCPN seeps and springs inventory, shared their 2005–2006 collections from Fossil Butte for confi rmation. Amy Tendick and Liz Ballenger, of the NCPN, helped record specimen label data from all mounted collections in the Fossil Butte National Monument herbarium. Libby Nance, former database specialist with the NCPN, assisted with development and quality control of the monument’s NPSpecies database. Libby Nance, Janet Coles, and Helen Thomas also provided data from recent vegetation mapping and wetland inventories on the monument. Drs. Stanley Welsh and Duane At- wood provided access to herbarium collections at Brigham Young University (BRY). Dr. Ron Hartman and Ernie Nelson provided access to specimens from the Rocky Mountain Herbarium at the Univer- sity of Wyoming.

Codes: TNC global rank assesses abundance and conservation priority on a scale of 1–5 (1 being extremely vulnerable and 5 being secure) for full spe- cies (G) and varieties or subspecies (T) across their entire range. A “?” indicates uncertainty in the rank, Q = taxonomic questions, and NR = not ranked. A comparable scoring system is used to measure state abundance (S) in Wyoming under the column WYNDD status. Under legal status, USFWS = U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. WY BLM = U.S. Bureau of Land Management, Wyoming Offi ce. C2 = Category 2 candidate (a former category used for taxa that might warrant being proposed for threatened or endangered status following additional research). WYNDD status includes species of concern (SpecConc) that are actively tracked by the state natural heritage program and species of potential concern (PotConc) that are mostly intrinsically rare regional endemics that are currently stable, but could become species of concern if present management conditions or trends change signifi cantly (Heidel 2007).
