Colonies of Ceeion Casablanca on Loggerhead Key. 



On this key seven plantings have been made of this species. These 

 represent the Cerion colonies A, B, C, H, I, J, and 0. 



The Loggerhead Ket Colony A. 

 The first planting of Cerion casahlancce was made on June 8, 1912 

 when 500 specimens were placed in a meadow covered with a 'sparse
