Description

Wainwright Dunes Ecological Reserve (see map) is located to the southeast of Wainwright in parts of townships 41 and 42, and range 5. It is about 28 km2 in size. This area has intrigued me since I was last there with Gary Anweiler on July 13 and 14, 2002. The habitat here consists of stabilized dunes that contain a mixture of aspen groves, prairie and open sand with sedges. I was able to return to this area in 2004 on June 8th, and July 2nd and 3rd. Sherri Dunne and I accessed the ecological reserve from the south side; the same as in 2002, and camped near the reserve entrance. All specimens were taken at and around 52.5960N, -110.6088W (the red dot on the map). The following list of 132 species updates the 88 of the previous list from June of 2002. Specimens were collected under Research and Collection Permit No. RC04EC003.
