Observation Narrative	Sparse, mostly herbaceous vegetation of an exposed convexly sloping greenstone outcrop. Foliose and crustose lichens are abundant; among vascular plants, the lithophytic specialist Talinum teretifolium thrives here. Plot location: Shenandoah NP. About 60 m upslope of the Knob Mountain Trail on the southeast slope of the northeasternmost "knob" of Knob Mountain, ca. 0.7 mi. west of Matthews Arm Campground.
