Following a brief introduction to the Kingdom Fungi, some information on identifying edible mushrooms in the White Mountains will be provided, along with a brief description of the sustainable ethics of collecting wild mushrooms for the table. Data concerning long term sustainability of mushroom foraging will also be discussed, including information on how you can get involved in this research locally.
Thomas Stoughton joined the Biological Sciences Department at PSU in 2016. He is an evolutionary biologist with a Ph.D. in Botany focused on assessing biodiversity of sessile organisms (principally, plants and fungi) using a broad spectrum of biogeographic, cytological, ecological, genetic (including genomic), and morphological data. The main objective of Stoughton’s research efforts is to provide useful information to land managers and practitioners of biology so that they can, in turn, make informed decisions regarding conservation of biological diversity.
Free and open to the public. Presented as part of the Museum’s ongoing virtual Mountain Voices series.
