On Saturday evening of the Hidden World of Mosses program, consider joining us at the Appalachian Forest Museum for a fascinating introductory talk by Robert Klips on LICHENS! Similar to the conspicuous but intricate lives of the bryophytes (mosses, liverworts, and hornworts), lichens have an incredible biology and display dazzling morphologies and colors, all right under our noses! In Robert Klip’s latest book, “Ohio Mosses, Liverworts, and Lichens”, 100 different species of lichen commonly found in the state are eloquently covered in the final section, making it a perfect starting guide for those interested in learning more about our native lichens. Consider taking it a step further and jumping on a great opportunity to further enhance your introduction to lichens with this in-person lecture by Robert himself!
