Abstract

Unusually dry weather prevailed throughout the Central Rocky Mountains during spring and ealy summer resulting in generally very poor fruiting of mushrooms during this time. This was reversed in late summer. Commencing in early August there were almost daily rains and by August 20, collecting was exceptionally good. Three hundred eighty-five collections were made and detailed annotations were made for over 200 of them. Many were photographed either in the field or in the laboratory. Project Number 145.
