          Florida Keys History and Distribution: Not reported for the Florida Keys by John Kunkel Small in 1913.  Collected in 1974 on North Key Largo by George Molnar 
(s.n., FTG) and reported for several sites on Key Largo in 1977 and 1978 by Karen Achor and Art Weiner (Weiner, 1980).  We consider this native and extant in the upper Keys (Key Largo).
