Question for Vera
1. go through list - especially SEMI BOGS - and get list of associates
particularly where occurring in more than 1 habitat (e.g. Spulchra - Carex aquatilis)
2. What use can we put presence or absence of fruticose lichens for woody
sp.?
3. confusion re UM-5 vs. LR 5 or 6. we have a common Fynm
*Salix phillyreophylla Caution
w/ Polygonum bistorta, Hircidalec, Carex biglowii, usually lacking Betula nana
what is it. occurs along back side of lichen ridge - UM-5
Bistorta - Betula ?
(4) confusion re Carex aquatilis <--> Carex biglowii. Many "snow patches" have C.b
and Salix pulchra but no C.b. Is it SP 11 ?
(5) confusion re SB-8. in drier/dryer site will have C. biglowii instead of C.a,
often substituting Cb for Ca moving from rims to troughs. Fruticous
lichen drop out also. Can you not distinguish between these ?
(6) SB-45 - might lack lichen, too? what if it has Rubus, Vaccinium
(7) What about a bog association w/ Carex aq. - Erio ang., Pedicularis spathina,
Caltha, Juniperus.
heavy in both
i.e. what do we do when C.a. occurs alone by itself or only with Erio angust.
