Gonella, M. P. 2018-2022 Habitat

Four Atriplex species are listed in Deams' Flora of Indiana (1940): spearscale (A. patula), triangle orache (A. hastata), red orache (A. rosea) and grassleaf orache (A. littoralis).   All four are introduced European species, although A. hastata may be native to North America. The species referenced in Bush 1996 is likely one of the first three, but probably not A. littoralis which has no record of occurrence in Myaamia lands.
