Next Monday’s ID meeting will be happening online.
Rather than using our usual format we’re going to experiment a little. Since there are fewer fungi to be found this time of year, we’ll be diving deeper into genera that a lot of people are interested in. This Monday the spotlight is on the milky caps – Lactarius and Lactifluus, hosted and moderated by the club’s own expert Bethany Beech.
Bring your most exciting or confounding milky cap observations and let’s learn about them together. We might well have time left over to look at other observations too.
As always, we encourage you to use iNaturalist to share your observations – it’s a great way to keep track of your finds, and you will be able to participate in these two NYMS projects:
If you’re not using iNaturalist, try to have images on your computer that you can share.
Either way, it’s important to document your finds with clear pictures, showing details of cap, underside and stem, and to note the habitat
All members are welcome to join – especially new members! We will try to make it as easy as possible for everyone and are eager to assist, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
