SUMMARY:CANCELED: EPT 2 Course Begins (June 29th- July 10th)
DESCRIPTION:Southern Appalachian Mayflies\, Stoneflies\, & Caddisflies [Session 2]: June 29 – July 10 \nDr. John Morse\, Clemson University \nNatural history and taxonomy of mayflies (Ephemeroptera)\, stoneflies (Plecoptera)\, and caddisflies (Trichoptera)\, including systematics\, ecology\, and behavior of larvae and adults\, with emphasis on those aspects important in ecological studies\, biological monitoring of water quality\, and sports fishing. Insects will be collected from diverse mountain stream habitats\, and identifications will be performed in the laboratory. Students may opt to take the Society for Freshwater Science’s Taxonomic Certification exam of eastern EPT to genus at the end of the course (http://www.sfstcp.com/). \nPrerequisites: General biology\, ecology\, or permission of instructor \nClick here to apply.

SUMMARY:CANCELED: Lichens Course Begins (June 29th - July 3rd)
DESCRIPTION:Biology & Conservation of Lichens June 29 – July 3 \nDr. Jessica Allen\, Atlanta Botanical Garden & Dr. James Lendemer\, New York Botanical Garden (download syllabus) \nLichens grow all over the world\, from the arctic to the tropics\, where they are important in a multitude of ways including serving as shelter for small invertebrates\, and food for animals from snails to caribou. In this course you will have a chance to learn about lichens in one of their centers of diversity\, the southern Appalachians. We will take field trips to a variety of habitats to explore the species and ecological diversity of lichens. Lab work will cover lichen chemistry\, morphology\, and identification. At the end of the course you will have a new perspective on the diversity\, evolution and ecology of lichens. \n* We will go on field trips to explore a variety of lichen communities characteristic of the southern Appalachians. Field trips will take place in natural areas up to 1.5 hours drive from HBS. Up to a total of 5 miles of hiking per day can be expected on days we go in the field. For all-day field trips you will need to pack a lunch. \nPrerequisites: General biology\, ecology\, basic understanding of evolution\, and prior experience with basic skills of microscopy is strongly recommended. \nClick here to apply.
