The lichen genus Cladonia includes some of the very common ground
cover plants in the United States and Canada. Before the compiling
of this volume, the published results of research carried out with
respect to this lichen genus were widely scattered, in many
different languages, and often very difficult to locate or
translate. This manual is an extensive compilation of the available
information necessary for the identification of the members of
Cladonia in North America. The compendium includes a section on the
recently developed microchemical approach to the taxonomy of the
group, and in order to illustrate the microchemistry of the genus a
new series of photographs was taken especially for the book. One of
the most important components of the volume is the key. Until now,
no such key embodying the recent concepts of the taxonomy of the
genus and incorporating all the North American species has been
available, although there have been excellent regional keys. As a
working key and manual to the lichen genus Cladonia on the American
continent north of Mexico, this study will be a valuable aid to
professional lichenologists, botanists, mycologists, plant
ecologists, plant ecologists and naturalists.
