Austin College Parcel, Texas
Research Natural Area


Austin College in Sherman, Texas, manages a small tract of woodlands in the Post Oak Savanna bioregion, which we plan to include in the network of Research Natural Areas. Dr. George Diggs is a professor in the Department of Biology at Austin College and is on the Advisory Board of the Ancient Cross Timbers Consortium. Professor Diggs is the author of the Illustrated Flora of Northcentral Texas (with B. Lipscomb and R. O’Kennon), which includes an interesting section on the Cross Timbers and Prairies of north central Texas.
