GEORGE WAYNE DOUGLAS (1938-2005) - BIBLIOGRAPHY

Compiled by Jenifer L. Penny [Jenifer.Penny@gov.bc.ca]

Introduction

Earlier this year, on February 10, 2005, George W. Douglas died. A BEN article in March commemorated George W. Douglas for his contributions to botany in British Columbia (BEN no. 344, March 14th, 2005), but did not include a complete list of George's publications. The list of George’s publications is a lengthy one and it is now available at http://www.ou.edu/cas/botany-micro/ben/suppl/344.html etc.

George W. Douglas was indeed a prolific author. He started publishing in the early 1970's upon completion of his M.Sc. and Ph.D. theses on subalpine and alpine plant communities. In the 1970's alone he produced 29 publications for journals and papers for government. In the 1980's he kept up his momentum and continued to produce many articles and government documents. He also edited and contributed to an attractive and informative coffee table book on Kluane Park, Yukon called "Kluane, Pinnacle of the Yukon" (Theberge and Douglas Eds. 1980). His work in the Yukon also resulted in "Rare Vascular Plants of the Yukon" (Douglas et al. 1981). He was a co-author of “Rare Vascular Plants of British Columbia”. His taxonomic passion was the Asteraceae family that resulted in “The sunflower family (Asteraceae) of British Columbia,” published by the Royal British Columbia Museum. Unfortunately, only the first two volumes of this three-volume work were published. In addition, in the 1970's and 80's he also made several contributions to the flora of Washington.

In the 1990's, however, his focus shifted, and he began to spend more time documenting the flora of British Columbia with special attention to the rare plants. In the 1990's, he started his work with the Conservation Data Centre (CDC) as the Program Botanist. During this time, he completed the 4-volume “Vascular Plants of British Columbia” and started to work on the 8-volume "Illustrated Flora of British Columbia". From the mid-1990’s he authored or co-authored no less than 36 species status reports, more than any other contributor of reports to the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada species assessment team. In the production of the status reports, he gave many of us the opportunity to get some experience with writing and submitting articles for publication, not to mention learning a lot about a single species biology, distribution and status in British Columbia. He was also involved in the following field guides in the 1990's: Plants of Northern British Columbia (Mackinnon et al. (eds.) 1992), Plants of the Southern Interior of British Columbia (Parish et al. (eds.) 1996), and the second, expanded edition of the Mountain Plants of the Pacific Northwest (Taylor and Douglas 1995). In total, he contributed around 45 publications during the decade which greatly enhanced our knowledge of vascular plants in British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest.

In the new millennium, George retired from the CDC and started consulting. In his new capacity as a consultant to government, he became active in many projects producing many reports. In the last two years, he worked on numerous status reports, four recovery strategies for species at risk and one multi-species recovery strategy. Sadly, his life and work were cut short by a terminal illness. He has, however, left us a truly inspiring legacy of getting the work done and making it accessible. His contributions are used often by many in British Columbia and beyond.
