Kappen, L/ Smith, DC 1980: Heat tolerance of two Cladonia species and Campylopus praemorsus in a hot steam vent area of Hawaii. - Oecologia47: 184-189. [RLL List # 109-57 / Rec.# 9788] Keywords: CLADONIA/ HAWAII/ STEAM VENTS/ TEMPERATURE/ HEAT TOLERANCE/ CLADINA
Abstract: 3 tables. 4 figures. ["With respect to heat tolerance only Campylopus can be considered as adapted to the hot environment. Therefore it is able to colonize the hot dry soil while deriving its moisture from adjacent steam vents. The lichens, particularly Cl. skottsbergii, are not adapted and are as sensitive to heat as most other lichens."]
