Viola novae-angliae[edit]

Viola novae-angliae (New England Violet) is a wildflower from the Violaceae family. Its range spans from Maine to Wisconsin and as far north as Ontario and Manitoba. It is considered a rare plant in some states.

Habitat[edit]

Viola novae-angliae is found in rocky shores, river banks, grassy areas, and jack pine stands. [1]

Description[edit]

Viola novae-angliae has ovate-triangular leaves and purple flowers. Most of the plant is pubescent, meaning it is covered in small hairs.[2]

Wildlife Ecology[edit]

Wildlife Ecology is a course that is taught in the Biology and Natural Resource Management majors at Grand Valley State University which educates students about basic ecological principles such as symbiosis.

Symbiosis and Parasitism[edit]

Using the de Bary definition of symbiosis that includes parasitism, mutualism, and commensalism[3] , this class focused on various forms of symbiosis, and specifically parasitism. We focused on wildlife parasites, one of them being brucellosis.
