Wetland and Aquatic Plants of the Northern Great Plains: A Field Guide for North and South Dakota, Nebraska, eastern Montana, and eastern Wyoming by Steven W. Chadde.

This is a comprehensive field guide to over 500 vascular plant species found in the region's marches, fens, bogs, wet meadows and low prairie, plus the aquatic plants of lakes, ponds, rivers and streams.

This book is based on the 1993 publication Aquatic and Wetland Vascular Plants of the Northern Great Plains by Gary E. Larson. This guide is revised and updated to reflect each species' current nomenclature and distribution pattern in the region. Nearly all plants are illustrated with a color photograph.

Steve W Chadde is a plant ecologist who spent much of his career studying wetlands in many regions of the USA.
