For Wednesday’s meeting, May 15, 2019, Dr. Ken Marr, Royal BC Museum Curator of Botany, will speak on the topic: New plant discoveries from Northern BC’s Alpine.
Ken’s presentation will cover images of the landscapes in which he and his Royal BC Museum colleagues have collected rare plants, common plants and a pseudoflower. He’ll also talk about a puzzling gap in the distribution of several species and what we are learning from DNA markers about the migration of several species.
He will provide many images of flowers and some fossils!
See you at 7:30 pm in the Cornett Building, Room A120, UVic.
