Hello!
Hello and welcome to my 'project'! I recently became fascinated with fungi in my immediate area. Over the last couple of years I have worked on expanding my knowledge of species in the Appalachian Mountains and surrounding areas. I am doing this with the hope that I will be able to see where the greatest diversity of fungal species exist in the Appalachian Mountains. I suspect that areas that receive more rain will have the most diversity but I look forward to figuring this out and learning more about fungi in the process! I have attempted to allow fungi into this project to be identified exclusively. I tried to remove lichens from the observations as best as possible. If you notice lichen species coming through into the observations, let me know so we can get those removed.
