Lichens are beautiful, fascinating organisms that are often overlooked, despite being found everywhere! This presentation will give a sense of the wonder of these unusual lifeforms, their dizzying array of species diversity and how lichens are important to the ecosystems in which they reside, with a focus on species here in North Carolina.
Live Virtual Presentation hosted by N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff.
