A warm, sunny start to an Ecology & Conservation Science fungi foray which ended in a lot of rain & some soggy scientists 🌧️ Worth it for some cool fungi though 🍄‍🟫 Thanks @myconet.bsky.social & Ruairi for their mushroom knowledge & @ruth-wright.bsky.social & @lindindin.bsky.social for the photos 🍄

What an incredibly beautiful Bolete found in a very wet part of the New Forest, this week. It could be the relatively uncommon Xerocomellus ripariellus (or perhaps X. cisalpinus). May get a more definitive ID next week. Whatever it is, it’s very lovely. #fungi #NewForest

🌱🔬27,000 students uncovered “dark biodiversity” hiding in plain sight (bryophytes, lichens & tardigrades), discovering 41 species new to Denmark and even some new to science. Citizen science advances research while inspiring the next generation 🌍 #Science #Biodiversity 📖 buff.ly/KgVP9Ab

My first time seeing the Oldrose Bolete (Imperator rhodopurpureus), toxic genera of bolete that grows in Europe. Seen at the All Things Fungi Featival in the UK
