Talk Description:
Ever wonder what mushrooms occur in the jungles of tropical Africa, or the dripping, moss covered Antarctic Beech forests of New Zealand, or across the diverse eco-regions of North America? We will take a photo safari of some of the places I have been working, and highlight my favorite mushrooms and ecosystems.
Bio:
Noah is one of North America’s foremost field mycologists; he has spent over three decades seeking, photographing, identifying, and furthering his knowledge about all aspects of macrofungi. He travels and lectures extensively across America, following the mushrooms from coast to coast.
Noah was the recipient of the 2022 North American Mycological Association’s Award for Contributions to Amateur Mycology. His primary research interest is on the taxonomy and systematics of fungi.
He authored, along with Christian Schwarz, Mushrooms of the Redwood Coast, a Comprehensive Guide to the Fungi of Coastal Northern California and Mushrooms of Cascaida, a Comprehensive Guide to Fungi of the Pacific Northwest, as well as A field Guide to the Rare Fungi of California's National Forests. He is currently working on Mushrooms of Alaska, with Steve Trudell and Kate Mohatt.
Our monthly meetings are free & open to the public. Our speaker series is funded by our Annual Mushroom Fair, being held this year on 11/23/25 at the Arcata Community Center.
This talk will be streamed via Zoom! Zoom begins at 7:30pm.
