Lichens and Bryophyte Group- on hold until further notice due to Covid 19

We are a Non-Vascular group. Our monthly bryophyte group in Menifee at the San Jacinto Collage biology lab. This is free and open to all beginner to advanced. Lab has microscopes and tools available for bryophyte identification. Every first friday of every month.

Next meeting will have a presentation on moss anatomy which will help in your ability to identify moss to species. We will then get into keying these mosses. After this we will then focus on the liverworts and hornworts. At this meeting we will discuss plans for group hikes where we can identify species and collect in order to identify to species.

Everyone in the group also discussed working on lichens as well. so we are opening this group up to "bryophytes and lichens" but beginning with the study of bryophytes.

We will attempt education speakers and help to id available.
