An Introduction to the Liverworts of New England
Despite being (perhaps) less showy than many flowering plants, Liverworts— a group of rather diminutive, non-vascular plants that are closely related to the mosses—nonetheless play a critical role in the functioning of countless ecosystems, including many that are found in New England. This class will introduce the biology of liverworts and examine the ecological role played by these plants. Additionally, we will discuss a select assortment of liverwort species that can be found growing in New England.
A recording of this class will be available for 30 days after the class date.
