Similarities And Differences

Thirty-four scaled chrysophyte taxa are described from 17 Adirondack lakes located in either Hamilton or Franklin counties. Ten taxa, Synura sphagnicola, Syn. echinulata, Syn. petersenii, Mallomonas acaroides var. muskokana, M. hamata, M. caudata, M. crassisquama, M. galeiformis, Spiniferomonas trioralis, and Chrysosphaerella longispina, were found in more than 40% of the study lakes. Mallomonas acaroides var. muskokana, M. hamata, Syn. sphagnicola, Syn. echinulata, and Spiniferomonas coronacircumspina were common and important components of the phytoplankton floras in lakes with a pH < 5.4; however, M. hamata and Sp. coronacircumspina were noticeably absent from bog lakes. Synura sphagnicola and Syn. echinulata were as common in samples with a pH between 5.4 and 7 as they were below pH 5.4. Mallomonas crassisquama, M. caudata, M. pseudocoronata, and Synura spinosa were found in a significantly greater percentage of samples from circumneutral lakes and were lacking from waters with a pH < 5.4. Differences in species distributions between Hamilton County (higher mean pH) and Franklin County lakes further supported the observed pH ranges of the common taxa. Similarities and differences are made with a study of Smol et al. (Can. J. Bot. 62: 911–923), who described the distribution of scaled chrysophytes from the surface sediments of Adirondack lakes.

This chapter analyzes how two of the more recent Amish settlements in New York—the Burke settlement in Franklin County and the nearby Swartzentruber settlement founded near Hopkinton in St. Lawrence County—demonstrate the diversity of the Amish world. The Burke settlers, representing one of the more progressive realizations of Amish identity, have come north from Marion, Kentucky, eager to begin farming on new land. The Hopkinton settlers, ultraconservative Swartzentruber Amish from the area around Holmes County, Ohio, also want land, but they seek a region where their young people will not be tempted as they were in the crowded diversity of their Ohio settlement. These two groups have encountered similar difficulties in finding farms, setting up schools, dealing with non-Amish neighbors and local governments, and creating markets for their wares.
