Abstract: 2 tables. 6 figures. [Morphological variation in Ramalina menziesii from Baja California to British Columbia especially regarding the number of perforations present in 15 mm long net buds. "When this measure was plotted against distance inland and latitude of origin, some clear trends emerged. Most conspicuous was that proximity to the coast was correlated with very few perforations per net." Other factors were also analyzed.]
