  • Pilgrimage Schedule
    43RD ANNUAL SPRING WILDFLOWER PILGRIMAGE MAY 04 - 06, 2012 CLAYTON, RABUN COUNTY, GEORGIA & ADJACENT AREAS Clayton, our headquarters for the 43rd Spring Wildflower Pilgrimage, is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of northeast Georgia just a stone’s throw from the Carolinas. The Sumter National Forest is to the east, the Nantahala National Forest is to the north, and the Chattahoochee National Forest is all around Clayton. Some of Georgia’s highest mountains are but a short drive. A diverse group of interested persons from four or more states are expected to participate. The pilgrimage will consist of a Friday night social with a program and great food, a Saturday banquet with a special presentation program and more great food, and fantastic field trips to some very special places located in the region. Clayton and the surrounding area have a diversity of interesting shops that will entice you to shop for local arts, crafts, and foods. Clayton is the county seat for Rabun County, founded in 1819 from land formally inhabited by the Cherokee and named for Governor William Rabun. The 377 square miles of Rabun County comprise the most northeastern section of Georgia’s Blue Ridge Geographical Province, a region that encompasses a mere 5% of Georgia. Sixty percent of the county is public lands under the management of the US Forest Service or the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. This beautiful area of scenic valleys, high rugged mountains, clear streams, and lush forests is attractive year round, but offers a special floristic bounty each spring. Join the Georgia Botanical Society for the Annual Spring Wildflower Pilgrimage and share in this rich and beautiful bounty.

  • No. 20: Further Notes on Species from the Eastern North America
    Opuscula Philolichenum, 15: 105-131. 2016. *pdf effectively published online 15November2016 via (http://sweetgum.nybg.org/philolichenum/) Studies in Lichens and Lichenicolous Fungi – No. 20: Further notes on species from the eastern North America JAMES C. LENDEMER1 AND RICHARD C. HARRIS2 ABSTRACT. – Arthothelium lichenale is placed in synonymy with Mycoporum compositum. The morphological distinctions between Collema pustulatum and Leptogium apalachense are discussed and the North American distributions of the species are revised. The distribution of Lecidea roseotincta in North America is extended to include the central and southern Appalachian Mountains. The distribution of Lecidella subviridis is expanded in northeastern North America. Pyrenula reebiae is placed in synonymy with P. leucostoma and both species are illustrated and discussed. Pyrenula shirabeicola is removed from synonymy with P. pseudobufonia and both species are illustrated and discussed. The following taxa are newly reported from North America: Calvitimela cuprea (Canada, Newfoundland & Labrador), Hypotrachyna consimilis (U.S.A., North Carolina), Schismatomma graphidioides (U.S.A., Alabama and New Jersey). KEYWORDS. – Biogeography, Collemataceae, North American Checklist, Lecanoraceae, Lecideaceae, Parmeliaceae, Pyrenulaceae, sterile crust. INTRODUCTION As a result of fieldwork carried out throughout eastern North America, particularly in the southern Appalachian Mountains, we have studied new collections that prompted us to reexamine our understanding of recognized species, their distributions, and ecologies. Routine curation of the herbarium at the New York Botanical Garden led to similar studies, as has the identification of specimens that were newly donated to the herbarium. While such studies typically result in discrete taxonomic or floristic publications, there are often also brief notes that merit publication but are not easily accommodated in a standalone contribution.
