Detailed entries for each orchid give distinguishing characteristics, color, flower descriptions, precise measurements, natural habitat, soil conditions, and more. Among the major genera are: Cypripedium Phragmipedium Habenaria Vanilla Crybe Erythrodes Corymborchis Lepanthes Malaxis Hexisia Cattleya Govenia Stanhopea Maxillaria Palumbina Aspasia Ionopsis Brassia Ponera Dichaea … and dozens of others.

Originally published in 1972, this classic weighs in at 1,777 pages and 789 pages of line drawings.  The primary aim of Aquatic and Wetland Plants of the Southwestern United States by Donovan S. and Helen B. Correll is to enable the identification of fern and flowering plans in polluted and non-polluted aquatic and wetland habitats of the Southwestern United States (Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona).  The basic requirement for inclusion was a plants ability to withstand a permanent or seasonally long submersion of at least its root system. In addition, plants classified as phreatophytes, or those plants whose deeply penetrating roots tap the groundwater, are included.
