Mushroom Observer: test

Purpose: The purpose of this site is to record observations about mushrooms, help people identify mushrooms they aren__t familiar with, and expand the community around the scientific exploration of mushrooms (mycology). Some have asked what counts as a mushroom. This site takes a very broad view. While the emphasis is on the large fleshy fungi, other fungi such as lichens, rust and molds as well as fungus-like organisms such as slime-molds are all welcome. Ultimately, I hope this site will become a valuable resource for both amateur and professional mycologists. I like to think of it as a living field guide for mushrooms or a collaborative mushroom field journal. https://mushroomobserver.org/ direct from Nathan Wilson
