  • BOT 140: Field Botany

    5.00 Credits
    Big Bend Community College

    Field botany involves the identification and classification of local plants of the Columbia Basin area. Different biomes are studied with emphasis on the steppe and shrub-steppe vegetation common to this area. Students participate in seven field trips to collect native plants. Following field trips, students identify, press, dry, and mount collected plants in order to assemble a required plant collection. During laboratory sessions students learn to use a taxonomic key to identify and classify collected plants. NOTE: This is a field course with required field trips. Field trips often involve hiking over uneven terrain: students climb up slopes, both on and off trails to collect plant specimens. Any questions concerning these filed trips may be directed to the instructor. (S) LS
