An episode long demanded by you, the audience, Crime Pays But Mycology Doesn't emerges with an intro into fundamentals of field mycology, aka "going around lurking in the woods and looking for fruiting bodies of fungi". With the help of the friendly and kind mycologist Alan Rockefeller, we use a field trip to look for the type locality of a small saprotrophic mushroom species (Pseudobaeospora deckeri) to help explain some of the things to consider when in the field looking for mushrooms, as well as some of the more complex intricacies o genetic sequencing and differences between "old world"(European) and New World (American) species of fungi that are in the same genus. Almost all photos by Alan Rockefeller.
Your contributions support this content. It sounds clichéd, but it's true. Whether it's travel expenses, vehicle repair, or medical costs for urushiol poisoning (or rockfalls, beestings, hand slices, toxic sap, etc), your financial support allows this content to continue so the beauty of Earth's flora can be made accessible to the rest of us in the degenerate public. At a time when so much is disappearing beneath the human footprint, CPBBD is willing to do whatever it takes to document these plant species and the ecological communities they are a part of before they're gone for good.
