What is Mary E. Barkworth?
'''Mary Elizabeth Barkworth''' (born 1941 [[Marlborough]] UK) is a [[Canadians|Canadian]] who has worked most of her life as a [[botanist]]. She has spent most of her working life as a faculty member at [[Utah State University]]. During that time, she worked primarily on grasses, particularly members of the Stipeae and Triticeae, but she also had primary responsibility for production of the two grass [=Poaceae, Gramineae] volumes (volumes 24 & 25) in the Flora of North America series. These two volumes served as the basis for three other resources: [https://upcolorado.com/utah-state-university-press/item/2265-manual-of-grasses-for-north-america The Manual of Grasses for North America], [https://upcolorado.com/utah-state-university-press/item/2298-grasses-of-the-intermountain-region Grasses of the Intermountain Region], and the Manual of Grasses on the web. This last was taken down for security concerns. Most of its resources, some updated, are available through [https://openherbarium.org/ OpenHerbarium.org] (descriptions and illustrations) and [https://keybase.rbg.vic.gov.au/projects/show/30 Keybase]. Barkworth retired from Utah State University in 2012. Since retiring, she has focused on two areas, expanding digitization of herbarium collections using [https://openherbarium.org/ OpenHerbarium.org] and [https://somalilandbiodiversity.org/ developing access to biodiversity education in Somaliland] through the Somaliland Biodiversity Foundation. Her name is usually abbreviated as «Barkworth» when citing a [[botanical name]]. ==Taxa by Barkworth== ''[https://phytokeys.pensoft.net/article/28226/ Aloe sanguinalis]'' Awale & Barkworth ''Nassella duriuscula'' ([[Phil.]])Barkworth ''Piptochaetium fuscum'' (Ness ex Steud.)
