The 2010 Mycological Society of America Annual Foray will be held at Bernheim Forest in Bullitt County, Kentucky where no voucher myxomycete collections have been published. Our ongoing study of Myxomycetes of Kentucky began in 1977 and still continues with several possible new species that require additional collections. Please bring any myxomycete collections you have made in Kentucky to the foray and share any made on June 27 that will help us document a more complete myxomycete survey for Kentucky.

We’re happy to announce that MYCOLOGIA has launched a publish ahead of print feature on our HighWire site. Subscribers can now view articles that have been accepted and copy edited about 8 weeks before they will appear in print. Articles will be formally published as soon as they are posted online and will have a DOI assigned. Prepublication articles will be replaced with updated versions until the final print version is published.

Dear Colleagues
I wanted to let you know about a new class that is being offered next year through the Gulf Coast Research Lab’s Summer Field Program. I will be teaching a class on marine fungi that will introduce marine fungi and emphasize collection, isolation and identification techniques. This class can be taken for credit by undergraduate and graduate students. It will also benefit amateur mycologists, field biologists, and researchers who are interested in learning new skills for pursuing academic, career-related or independent studies of fungi.
The class is offered from July 27 to August 7, 2009. Please see the flier for more information.

The National Parks Service and US Environmental Protection Agency are working on a model to predict plant responses to nitrogen deposition and climate change. Please contact Katie Becklin (kmb5p9@mizzou.edu) if you have information regarding the mycorrhizal status and/or responsiveness of alpine, subalpine, or arctic plant species that you are willing to share. This is an initial effort at modeling global change effects in North America. Your help and contributions would be much appreciated.
