About Harbouria trachypleura (A.Gray) J.M.Coult. & Rose
Harbouria is a monotypic genus of flowering plants in the Apiaceae family. It contains only one species: Harbouria trachypleura (A.Gray) J.M.Coult. & Rose. This species is native to the U.S. states of Colorado, New Mexico, and Wyoming. The genus name Harbouria honors Jared Patterson Harbour (1831–1917), an American plant collector who worked in the Rocky Mountains of North America. The specific epithet trachypleura comes from two Greek words: τραχύς (transliterated as trakhús), meaning 'rough', and either πλευρά (pleurá) or πλευρόν (pleurón), meaning 'rib' or 'side'. This taxon was first described in 1888.
