Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Western Polypores
Polypores are very easily collected and preserved and they largely retain their characters when dried, which makes them excellent objects for class study during the winter months. Many of them, also, remain in situ during the winter in perfect condition for collecting. As a group, they lend themselves remarkably well to studies in gross and minute anatomy, vari ation, adaptation, and injurious effects on trees and structural timbers.
North America may be conveniently divided into five regions (1) eastern Canada and the northern United States southward to the southern boundaries of Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, and Kansas, and westward to the western boundaries of Kansas, Nebraska, and the Dakotas; (2) the southern United States.
