SUMMARY:Come join us for an online ID meeting this Monday April 1
DESCRIPTION:Next Monday’s week’s ID meeting will be happening online. \nCome share what you’ve found\, see what others have found or to ask more general questions about anything fungi-related. \nWe encourage you to use iNaturalist – it’s a great way to keep track of your finds\, and you will be able to participate in these two NYMS projects: \n\nFungi of New York City\nFungi Beyond New York City\nSlime Molds of New York City\n\nIf you’re not using iNaturalist\, try to have images on your computer that you can share. \nEither way\, it’s important to document your finds with clear pictures\, showing details of cap\, underside and stem\, and to note the habitat. When possible\, make a spore print. \nAll 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. \n-Sigrid Jakob\, NYMS \n  \nMonday April 1\, 6:30 PM \n

SUMMARY:Using iNaturalist to organize fungal finds and leveraging it to see more diversity
DESCRIPTION:iNaturalist is a powerful community science tool that allows users to easily contribute observations of mushrooms and other organisms to the world’s largest public database of species biogeography. In the process of contributing data users are able to increase their knowledge of species by suggestions from a well trained artificial intelligence and by a number of active mycologist that curate the data that enters the platform. The ability to collect metadata from microscopy to DNA sequences to chemical reactions and the capacity to point to other observations of host plants etc makes for extremely rich observations. Observations can be collected into projects that can be sliced based upon geography\, time\, species of interest\, etc and allows for real-time monitoring. This presentation will dig into the basics of how to use iNaturalist; making observations\, mining data\, and using projects. I will highlight the Fungal Diversity Survey’s CA FUNDIS Year 1 project where over 5\,000 vouchered collections were made and many of them received DNA sequencing as a model for project stewardship. \nDamon Tighe is an amateur mycologist from Oakland California who is a big user of the iNaturalist platform. He is a collector for the California Fungal Diversity Survey (FUNDIS) and has done fungal surveys in Ecuador\, Arizona\, among other locales using iNaturalist as the primary tool to collect and share data with stakeholders. In his professional life he was a former researcher on the Human Genome Project and now helps translate biotechnology techniques into classroom activities for education institutions across the country. \nPresentation slideshow

SUMMARY:NYMS pop-up walk\, Van Cortlandt Park West\, Bronx\, Sunday\, April 7th
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a walk in Van Cortlandt Park West\, Bronx this Sunday\, April 7th! \nBring paper bags for collecting specimens\, a hand lens\, a knife\, a tackle box\, water and a lunch. \nWe highly recommend using the iNaturalist app (IOS\, Android) to document the fungi you find. Find out how to use it here. \nIf you’ve never been on a mushroom walk with us before\, here is what to expect. \nThe event details are only viewable to active members who are logged into the website. To view details of the event\, please use the login form in the left sidebar. \n\nThe first ticks have been sighted in New York City. Ticks don’t just transmit Lyme disease but a number of other conditions. Please protect yourself! \nWe look forward to seeing you on Sunday!
