PLEASE NOTE BEFORE LISTING YOUR SPECIMEN PHOTOS HERE:
While the listed references here apply to this entire region; very little collecting has been done outside the Mount Crawford Forest area and known local mine localities.
Thus, almost all specimens collected in this area can be attributed to a specific locality(s), many of which lie within the Mount Crawford Forest area. Many of which are not yet seperately listed.
Many old labels may only have, Williamstown or Mt. Crawford listed as their locality, in this instance please list them under Mount Crawford Forest, unless there is a strong reason you believe they should be elsewhere.
