INTRODUCTION

The Flynn Bogs System is located in Leon County, Texas, northeast ofthesmall agricultural community of Flynn. The bogs featured in this tourareall on a privately owned ranch. The owner had a deep appreciation oftheunique ecosystems found on his land, and took pains to preservethe bogs.  Since this page was first put online, the water levelin the bogs has changed.  Many of the species featured in thesepages are now present in reduced numbers or are absent altogether.In this part of the state, bogs usually consist of ponds or seepsoverimpermeable layers in the fine sands of the Carrizo association. Thesandyuplands around the bogs have their own characteristic flora as well.Other bog-sandyland complexes are known from additional spots inLeonCo. and from adjacent Robertson Co. A number of the plants known fromthesebogs are more typical of deep East Texas and are found this far westchieflyin association with the bogs--new and unexpected species are alwaysbeingadded to the list.Botanists from Texas A&M University have been visiting the FlynnBogs System since October of 1990. To make it easier to specifylocationswithin the large ranch, several sites have been designated, each withitsown unique features.NOTE: The chapters contain a large number ofimages,GIF format for the small images that appear with the text.
