Macrofungi

This inventory of macrofungi (mushrooms) in the various ecosystems of the NATL was conducted by a team of four graduate students who took Mycology in 2012 from University of Florida Assistant Professor Matthew E. Smith. The inventory took place between April and October of 2013, although some collection information and specimens were drawn from the work of other students in the 2012 Mycology class. Fungi collected were, in most cases, dried for preservation in the University of Florida Herbarium. The project was supported by a $500 NATL Minigrant. The team’s final report is here.
