Walk leader La Monte Yarroll. We held a winter walk in response to another REI initiative to get people out into the wilds. We had over 30 people attend and we have quite a few species to add to the club life list. Part of the reason may be the unusual season, but I really want to call out the excellent identification work by Adam Haritan, in addition to our regular Club Identifiers and Mycologists.

Comments:
Postia subcaesia is probably what we’ve been mistakenly calling Tyromyces caesius.
New species to the club Lasiosphaeria spermoides, Postia subcaesia, Rhytisma punctatum (Speckled Tar Spot), Serpula himantioides and Schizopora paradoxa.
