Editing Johnston Atoll (section)

==Flora==
The first list of plants cataloged on Johnston Atoll was published in  ''Vascular Plants of Johnston and Wake Islands'' (1931), based on the Tanager Expedition (1923) collections. Three species were described: ''[[Lepturus|Lepturus repens]]'', ''[[Boerhavia diffusa]]'', and ''[[Tribulus cistoides]]''. In the 1940s, when the island was used for aviation activities for the war, ''[[Pluchea odorata]]'' was introduced from [[Honolulu]].<ref name="Wagner Kosaki Spalding Whitton p.
