[BNS_members] Fall 2023 mycoblitz

[Soren Bondrup-Nielsen]

>From Sean Haughian

Hi everyone,



The fall foray for the 2023 Mycoblitz is quickly approaching!



*The Fall Continental Mycoblitz 2023 in the Maritimes!*

*Dates: October 13-22, 2023*

*Where: Everywhere mushrooms grow*



The 2023 Continental Mycoblitz is open to anyone who is willing to make
scientifically valuable collections of mushrooms – including photography,
field notes, and submitting a dried specimen. Any individual or
organization can submit their most unique/interesting/exciting collections
from the foray week to the project. Mycologists and foray partners will
examine each collection and will perform DNA sequencing on thousands of the
specimens that are submitted.



For general information about the Mycoblitz see:
https://mycota.com/2023-continental-mycoblitz/



Mycologists in the three Maritime Provinces will coordinate the Mycoblitz
efforts in our region, to try sequence over 1,000 collections of mushrooms
from New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.



If you are located in Nova Scotia please contact Sean Haughian at the Nova
Scotia Museum (sean.haughian at novascotia.ca) to get more detailed
information about collecting and documenting mushrooms for the Continental
Mycoblitz, or to arrange for dropping specimens off at the Museum of
Natural History.



Best regards,



Sean
