Summary:  An easy-to-use field guide to the rich lichen flora of Northeastern North America. Designed for amateur naturalists, nature interpreters, forestry workers, land surveyors, researchers, and the general public. It requires no previous botanical experience and is written in non-technical language. The 138 lichens in this guide are seen mostly in the Canadian Atlantic provinces, New England, Québec and eastern Ontario. Formatted so that each page is arranged by the surface each lichen grows on in the field, its shape or growth form, then by its color. Full color photographs and black and white drawings for each species also aid in identification. Helps to make lichens accessible to non-specialists. Recognition of lichen species helps create a better understanding of the diversity as well as an appreciation of these often overlooked and under-studied organisms. Troy McMullin is a lichenologist and forest ecologist. He graduated with a Master's degree from Dalhousie University in Halifax and a Ph.D. from the University of Guelph. Frances Anderson is a librarian and research associate at the Nova Scotia Museum. Other authors:  Anderson, Frances. Pennanen, Judith. Pross, Catherine, photographer.
