Massive poplars are common along rivers along the coast, as well as swampy areas. They make for a reliable repository of mosses on account of their broad, orthogonal trunks with well developed furrows. Below are a handful of Moss species from the trunk and fallen branches of a tree in the Comox Valley today. In the Vancouver Region, you might likewise expect Homalia trichomanoides, Neckera pennata, occasional Zygodon rupestris and maybe some cameos from other Orthotrichaceae or even a Syntrichia.

And for the lichen folks, watch out for Caliciopsis calicioides! E.g., https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/188613737
Hey @bradenjudson -- you should do a top to bottom lichens of poplar post!
Nice. You should do one for maples.

I've been wanting to do a Lichens of Gary Oaks post, but that list is no small endeavor!
@bradenjudson here are the 101 species of ascomycetes I purportedly have observed on G oaks. No guarentees as to their quality.

Maybe we could compare and see if we have some semblance of a usuable list?
@bradenjudson I see it is lumping in my observations from "Oak Bay" in my keyword search, ergo Lecanora rupicola and Ophioparma (sic?)

paring it down to observations with "G oak" brought it down
Hmmm - tough one spanning many different orders/families. Let me get back to you as I think this would be a fun one to pull together!
Difficulty also heightened by myriad unidentified crustose lichens I see regularly....
@bradenjudson Why not just shoot 4 trunks and see how many make sense.
