Upcoming Field Seminar on Ericaceous Heaths and the Ericaceae!     Title: Ericaceous Heaths and the Ericaceae Instructor(s): Paul Manos and José M Like   Tweet   Pin   +1   in   Upcoming Field Seminar on Ericaceous Heaths and the Ericaceae! Title: Ericaceous Heaths and the Ericaceae Instructor(s): Paul Manos and José Meireles Dates: July 23–29, 2023 Description: The focus of this seminar is on the plant family Ericaceae. Coastal Maine is particularly rich in ericaceous species with approximately 32 shrub and herb species placed in 17 genera. Ericaceae in the broad sense (incl. monotropoids, pyroloids, empetrids) are abundant in a broad range of coastal and inland habitats providing opportunities to study the taxonomic diversity in a phylogenetic context. Ecological components of the family, e.g., niche/habitat and fungal and pollinator associations will be considered for independent study. Field trips will target local plant community types with abundant ericad diversity, followed by guided identification of collections, supplemented by examination of species found in other parts of North America. Participants are encouraged to bring collections they have made in other geographic areas. ▪ Interactive color flyer for this seminar is available here! ▪ Any questions about the content of the seminar should be directed to the instructor (email address can be found on the flyer). ▪ Details about costs, discounts, accommodations, and meals can be found here. ▪ Register Here ▪ General Information ▪ Online Calendar Other Eagle Hill Programs • Eagle Hill Publishing—See our other peer-reviewed scientific journals. • In-Person Seminars—Weeklong, summer seminars on the coast of Maine. • Online Mini-Seminars—Live, online seminars taught over zoom. • Nature Retreats—Nature retreats on the coast of Maine are available year-round.
