Although the BAWG is by no means complete, where a flowering plant appears in the guide, I attempt to also include all other interesting bay area species in the same genus (since they are likely to look similar and be easily confused). However, you can get a more authoritative list from a link to “Bay Area species” at the bottom of many taxon pages.
iNaturalist is linked for almost every taxon with a scientific name. It lists all species in the bay area within the genus or a higher-level taxon. It does not list subspecies or varieties. iNaturalist doesn’t support an arbitrary map region, so it filters the species based on a map square that includes additional area out to Stockton.
CalFlora is linked for most taxons within vascular plants. It only works at the family or genus level, but it includes species and subspecies. It uses a map filter for the bay area that matches the boundaries of the BAWG.
For both iNaturalist and CalFlora, a link from a low-level taxon always includes all species within the same genus. A link from a higher-level taxon includes all species within that taxon.
