Of the approximately 200 species of the genus Castilleja, many are com mon, widespread and often conspicuous components of our native flora. Howev er, there are also many species in the genus that are rare and declini ng due to a variety of causes, as well as many others that are extremely ra nge-limited due to their stringent habitat requirements. Many of these spec ies are seriously threatened with extinction from a variety of mostly human -caused factors, including global warming and resultant climate changes.

Fortunately, there are also some remarkable success stories, including the strong recovery of several species that were n early extinct but recovered once the sources of their decline were eliminat ed. The program will include photos from Mark’s 37 years of field work stud ying paintbrushes and their relatives.

Mark Egger is a retired scie nce educator, a research associate at the WTU Herbarium in Seattle (Washing ton Territory University), and a member of CNPS, WNPS (Washington Native Pl ant Society), and NPSO (Native Plant Society of Oregon). He has published n umerous papers and flora treatments for the genus Castilleja, including a n umber of new species and varieties, and he is the lead author for Castillej a in the recently-published Vol. 17 of the Flora of North America. He also maintains a Flickr site with over 56,000 images of his botanical photos col lected from travels over the last 37 years, centered around Castilleja and related genera.
