Aquatic Plant Identification

This two day class (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day) will cover identification of aquatic plant species, focusing on littoral zone (shallow water) submersed and emergent plants.  Participants will have the opportunity to obtain a hands-on look at lake and pond species, and receive professional instruction for identification and determination at the species level.  The class will visit field sites in the greater Kalamazoo and Barry County area, and participants will have the opportunity to examine specimens in a laboratory setting.
