The following links to illustrations show a sample of some of the plants you can find in the Aleutian/Pribilofs. Not all of these plants are found everywhere in this region. Nor are all plants in the region illustrated here.

The FLORA OF ALASKA illustrations (numbers 1-60) show a proportional scale. A 1/3 scale means, for example, that the drawing could be multiplied 3X and would show the plant at actual size.

Names are given in this order, alphabetized by species/genus:

Latin
Unangam Tunuu
when available
(UT page number from the Aleut Dictionary/Unangam Tunudgusii)
(common name, Unangam Tunuu)
Common name

This symbol, ~ means the plant is considered very toxic. A range of toxic effects are known in some plants in this region. Never eat any unknown plant or berry. Be certain of the identity of a plant before you eat it. Taste a wild plant only under the supervision of a parent or a caregiver.

This symbol means this plant is recommended for use in ACTIVITY TWO, Section Three.
