27(2) Bulletin published

12 November 2015

The fall issue of the Bulletin is covered in mold. Our curators of art discuss The Mysterious Nature of Fungi, the current exhibition that depicts not only the mystery but also the beauty of these organisms. Our archivist showcases an unpublished manuscript by mycologist Constantine J. Alexopoulos and his mycological reference images. Our publication and marketing manager happily proclaims the publication of volume 15 of Huntia. We are pleased to announce the recipient of the 2015 Lawrence Memorial Award. We thank our 2015 Associates for their generous support and detail the 2016 program benefits.
