Algae and Protozoa from the Keweenaw Peninsula, Michigan

One of the goals of our lab is to catalogue the various types of freshwater algae found in the Keweenaw Peninsula, Michigan. To do this, students of Dr. Gretz's Phycology classes have contributed images taken of samples they collected during their semester long class. Students have also created websites to show their collections and catagorize them by genus.
