Barry,

Most of the places around here that have habitat suitable for any cp's are
either nature preserves where any type of collecting is absolutely
prohibited, or else state parks where much of the vegetation of interest
has already been destroyed by your friendly lake shore homebuilders. I
have seen Utricularia in some of the marshes in Lake County up around Fox
Lake but again these are all protected sites.

Bye,
Liane
