    The Bryozoan Fistulipora Candida from the Ames Limestone (Conemaugh) of Ohio
    (1974-03) Peterson, R. M.; Hoare, Richard D.; Sturgeon, Myron T.
    The bryozoan Fistulipora Candida (Moore & Dudley, 1944) has been found at two localities in the Ames Limestone; no other occurrences of massive bryozoans have been reported from Pennsylvanian rocks in Ohio. These occurrences suggest a possible correlation of the Ames Limestone with the Coal Creek Limestone (Virgilian Series) in the Western Interior Basin.

    Ice-Lens Mounds, Cedar Bog, Champaign County, Ohio
    (1974-03) Kuntz, Charles S.
    Dome-shaped mounds containing lenses of transparent ice were found in a one-half acre area in Cedar Bog, Champaign County, Ohio. The occurrence of ice-lens mounds in temperate latitudes such as Ohio has not previously been reported. Formation of the ice lenses caused heaving of the overlying soil to form small topographic mounds, which remained after the ice had melted. The ground surrounding the area of mounds did not develop ice lenses, either because of standing water or because the water table was too deep to allow ground water to be drawn upward to the freezing surface. Ice-lens formation was apparently controlled by the depth of the water table, by variations in the soil, and by the rate and duration of freezing.

    The Lepidoptera of Cedar Bog, Champaign County, Ohio I. and Annotated Check List of the Rhopalocera
    (1974-03) Albrecht, Carl W.
    Forty-eight species of Rhopalocera (skippers and butterflies) have been confirmed by specimen records from Cedar Bog, a relict boreal bog in Champaign County, Ohio. For six of the listed species—Poanes m. massasoit (Scudder, 1863); Lephelisca muticum (McAlpine, 1937); Satyrium caryaevorus (McDunnough, 1942); Satyrium a. acaclica (Edwards, 1862; Nymphalis m. milberti (Godart, 1819); Boloria selene myrina (Cramer, 1777)—the Cedar Bog record represents a noteworthy Ohio distribution locality.

    Geologic Conditions Essential for the Perpetuation of Cedar Bog, Champaign County, Ohio
    (1974-03) Forsyth, Jane L.
    Cedar Bog, a unique boreal relict area, is situated on the Mad River Valley Train (outwash) four miles southwest of Urbana, Ohio. The unusual plants present here are maintained by a continuous flow, at the surface, of cool high-lime ground water, which emerges as springs along the base of a low escarpment on the east edge of the Bog.

    A Natural History Study of the Vascular Flora of Cedar Bog, Champaign County, Ohio
    (1974-03) Frederick, Clara May
    Cedar Bog Nature Preserve is a relict boreal bog situated in the Mad River valley in Champaign County, west-central Ohio. Originating following the retreat of the Wisconsin glacier, it has been maintained by the combination of a usually cool moist microclimate and a uniform flow of cool ground water. Microclimatic data recorded from 1963 through 1969 demonstrate that Cedar Bog has cooler temperatures and a shorter frostfree period than do adjoining areas. These two factors have resulted in the survival of plants unique to this part of Ohio.
