THE PRESIDENT'S LETTER To the Members of the Mycological Society of America: When thinking back to my days as a graduate student, this is the least likely position I ever imagined I would be inJ It is indeed a real pleasure to serve the Mycological Society to the best of my ability in this highest and most coveted position. It has been most gratifying to see the enthusiastic response among members when asked to serve in various capacities in the Mycological Society during this year. There is real evidence of a tremendous re- vitalization during the past year. It has been through the laborious efforts of Dr. lark ~ogerson,serving as Acting Editor of M~cologia, the past officers, and the cooperative patience of our members that the ~ycoio~icalsociety has really-gone forward. It is a fine tribute to Clark to have the Council and the Editorial Board unanimously request him to serve as Editor.

  • Mount Shasta Annotated Bibliography Chapter 31
    Mount Shasta Annotated Bibliography Chapter 31 Science: Botany Mt. Shasta stands as if an island in the sky of northern California. The higher reaches of the mountain are a unique environment. Any such isolated habitat such as the heights of Mt. Shasta holds the promise of containing plants and trees which perhaps have evolved in some way independently of outside influences. From the times of earliest exploration on, botanists have desired to explore Mt. Shasta to see what grows upon its slopes. Comparisons with the flora of other peaks and alpine regions of the West helps give botanists insights into the geographic distribution and evolution of the plant kingdom. The Scotsman William Brackenridge, who discovered the California Pitcher Plant (Darlingtonia californica) near the base of Castle Crags in 1841, was the first botanist to cross over the slopes of Mt. Shasta (see Section 9. Early Exploration: American Government Expeditions, 1841-1860). During the latter half of the 19th Century some of the most famous botanists of the time came to Mt. Shasta. Scottish botanist John Jeffrey discovered the Jeffrey Pine in the Shasta Valley, possibly on northern slope of Mt. Shasta, in 1852. The famed American botanist Asa Gray, and English botanist Joseph Dalton Hooker, botanized on Mt. Shasta with John Muir in 1877 (see Section 21. Literature: John Muir). John Gill Lemmon, who climbed to the summit of Shasta in 1879, later scientifically named the specific variety of Red Fir trees he found upon the mountain's slopes as the Shasta Red Fir (see also Section 11. Mountaineering 19th Century).

  • Abstract Herbarium Collections Management
    ABSTRACT HERBARIUM COLLECTIONS MANAGEMENT INTERNSHIP by Amanda Lauren Leslie Harmon The Willard Sherman Turrell Herbarium at Miami University (MU) is the largest collection of preserved botanical material in the state of Ohio. This report describes the projects I conducted at the MU Herbarium during my herbarium collections management internship. The internship and subsequent report were conducted to fulfill requirements for graduation from the Master of Environmental Science (MEn) program at MU’s Institute for the Environment and Sustainability (IES). I completed three main projects during the course of my internship. The first project involved updating the MU Herbarium Assistant’s Manual, which was last updated in 1980. The second project was the digitization of the fungal collection of the University of Cincinnati. The final project was the organization and intercalation of Peruvian specimens collected between 2004- 2005 by MU Botany PhD graduate Xanic Rondon. Herbarium curator and advisor Michael Vincent selected these projects for my internship to provide specific learning opportunities that have prepared me for professional natural history collections management.
