註釋The sunflower family is one of the largest families of plants and includes many well-known species such as the dandelion, wormwood, goldenrod, chrysanthemum, and camomile. Over 300 sunflower family species are found in British Columbia. After an introduction reviewing the general characteristics of the sunflower family, this volume provides detailed taxonomic descriptions of species found in British Columbia from four tribes of this family: Astereae (including asters and daisies), Anthemideae (including sagebrush and tansy), Eupatorieae (including bricklebrush), and Inuleae (including filago and everlasting). An important purpose of this guide is to enable non-botanists to identify different species, and it includes identification keys, illustrations of various parts of the plants, and maps of the plant's known geographic range in the province. An appendix includes a glossary, lists of species and synonyms, and a list of excluded taxa.
