The digitization of the holdings of Coastal Plain lichens at The New York Botanical Garden is a continuing effort, thus the checklists accessed on this page are not complete. As of May, 2010 more than 6600 specimens have been incorporated, though this is only a small fraction of our total holdings from the entire region. Only the electronic checklist for the Atlantic Coastal Pine Barrens (EPA Region 84) is nearly complete because all of the holdings from the State of New Jersey have been digitized. Users should navigate the links below to generate dynamic checklists based on the databased specimen records. In addition to a comprehensive checklist for the entire region we have subdivided the records into smaller datasets corresponding to the level III ecoregions within the Coastal Plain recognized by the EPA (http://www.epa.gov/wed/pages/ecoregions/level_iii.htm). To search for specific records, or to query the entire Coastal Plain dataset, consult the “Specimens” tab.
