SUMMARY:Intermediate Lichen Identification
DESCRIPTION:Are you ready to take a casual interest in lichens to the next level? This special all-day workshop is intended for keen beginners and intermediates who would like to advance their identification abilities. \nWe’ll start with a presentation on lichen identification\, with a focus on the terminology that is used in dichotomous keys. After the presentation we’ll go and collect lichens in the mature forests and metabasalt rock outcrops on the institute’s 900 acres. After lunch (included)\, we’ll look at the specimens under dissecting and compound microscopes. We’ll do chemical tests and examine spores. We will also key things out as a group and individually. \nWe will provide microscopes\, dichotomous keys\, and chemicals. \nAge: Adults only. \nCost: $125\, which goes toward supporting programs at Clifton. \nAbout the program leader: Bert Harris is a Co-Director of the Clifton Institute. He is an amateur lichenologist who has the goal of producing a reference to make Mid Atlantic lichen identification easier for beginners. \nEmail Bert with any questions bharris@cliftoninstitute.org
