Mycological Field Trip Jemez Saturday, 19 June 2010 Details: We met at the La Cueva a little before 10:00, and departed at 10:15. Conditions: It was pretty dry (not unexpected) in the areas we visited. Several USFS vehicles were racing up FR 144 to deal with a small fire, and a much larger fire was evident further north. (Ah, Summer in New Mexico.) Fungi: Other than an uninspiring specimen I believe was Lycogala (wolf milk slime), FR 604 was a bust. However, FR 144 was marginally productive. Marjorie spotted a not exactly ponderous fruiting of Neolentinus ponderosus (aka Lentinus p.) at the base of what we assume was a very decayed Pinus ponderosa (Ponderosa Pine). The Longenbaughs also found a couple of earthstars (Geatsrum sp.). Field Trip Description Participants www.mycowest.org/outings/2010/fr~a6k.htm dmw . 2010-06-19
