Saturday & Sunday's weather cloudy, mild & still, ideal for getting into nature & making lots of observations!
Deirdre is the observations leader today, who'll be next?
Sunday 27 Nov, Friends of Solomon Gully Nature Conservation Reserve are holding a Bioblitz along the Leanganook Track between Burnside St & Fletcher St Quarry Hill- join in at anytime between 11am to 2pm
這應該是我第三次來壽山，雖然我高中離壽山其實不遠，可能是因為跟我家反方向，也可能是朋友約出門只會去駁二，因此直到高三開始認植物之後才對這個最熟悉的陌生地方感興趣，熟悉的當然是猴子的傳聞，而不負所望，第一次去的時候就見識到猴子的強勢及兇悍了，只是想拿個水壺，我媽背包裡的可樂果就被搶走了，雅座這地方以及猴子的火眼金睛令我印象深刻。
這次跟隨台灣山林復育協會來壽山，不僅見到許多第一次認識的物種，也學到一些植物、復育等概念知識，自己來走時不曾注意過的路旁，居然存在稀有植物，植物豐富度也遠比自己來看時多出許多(可能是因為只會關注認識的XD)
一到登山口，三隻大冠鷲幼鳥便來迎接我們(不確定是不是因為停車場的大公雞XD)，這登山口並非我與媽媽平常走的路線，不久便到柏油路段，蘇老師介紹壽山因為位處高位珊瑚礁，像是高雄壽山、墾丁以及現在許多生態豐富的地方，很多植物因為平地沒有都是因為不容易開發，而留下原生植物，不是因為環境特殊而有特殊植物。
這次藉由這裡環境特別介紹了外來入侵種銀合歡，這裡也是人種擴散的，銀合歡幾年來已經三四層樓高，移除可能不太有效...

I'm going to tag the observations in which I rear insects so they're easier to find. I'll be using:
rattyexploresraise
(all lowercase) in these observations. Accidental raising of parasites will also have this tag.
The purpose of today's lab was to use and feel comfortable with the iNaturalist App and to learn how to observe and document different species that are seen around the campus. Today, I registered and learned to navigate through the iNaturalist App. I went outside and explored the campus with the many different types of species around Notre Dame of Maryland University. I spent about an hour and a half outside to observe the different living things around the college. I was fascinated to s...

Récapitulatif… L’année dernière, M. Domon me contacte : en 1979, il avait fait des analyses et des inventaires de plusieurs boisés de Rivière-des-Prairies.
more fallout from the recent Moths of Laos publication (2020):
(A) Definite changes
(1) all records in HK of Calindoea argentalis (Walker, 1866) are referable to Calindoea sapa Owada & Kobayashi, 2020, which occurs in Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and southern China - the forewing costal margin of sapa is much browner, the f/w subterminal spotted fascia almost non existant and the hindwing fasciae less distinct. Further information o...
• First mention of this group is from North America by Peck (1874) as Agaricus geophyllus var. lilacinus. Gillet (1875) soon formalised the new combination as Inocybe geophylla var. lilacina (incorrectly using lilacinus).
• Kauffman (1918) promoted the variety to a new species, I. lilacina, suggesting it did not grow with I. geophylla in Michigan (US), and the colour difference was morphologically distinct.
• Traditionally placed alon...
34 participants already and it's only day 1 with a full weekend to go!
I have a feeling we're going to break the participation record for our region this year!
So many good sightings already!
We are also currently sitting in 3rd place overall for species sighted at the end of the first day. Well done everyone!
Liebe Farnfans;
Für alle die Farnpflanzen mögen, sich aber schwer tun beim Bestimmen; folgende Seite habe ich bei meiner online Recherche gesehen und cool gefunden. Schreibt gern in die Kommentare darunter, wenn ihr andere gute Seiten kennt!

Пять лет назад, по наводке, приглашению и просьбе @alexeiebel я зарегистрировался на этом сайте и выложил первые фотографии.
Вначале немножко редкостей, потом коллекцию белок, а потом, в начале следующего, 19, года, после создания товарищем Серёгиным @apseregin проекта Флоры России, начал выкладывать отснятую за годы вл...
You may have just received a notification that this project has been updated. Just to let you know i have added additional Genus (Camarophyllopsis and Hodophilus) and the species Pseudotricholoma metapodium as these are important 'CHEGD' ancient grassland fungi which i had previously omitted but do deserve the attention and inclusion to help us locate important grassland sites.
If you have any questions just let me know!

Thailand was pretty amazing too! Didn't hike as much, but still saw some cool stuff.

Hello all
Thank you for joining the project
We might not be able to win the whole GSB, but we can definitely beat our previous record of 102 observations and become the most successful GSB for Whittlesea. And there is a big chance of that happening because we have 54 observations already!
On several occasions I have observed pluteoid basidiomes with dark yellow-brown to yellow pilei and whitish stipes, fruiting around the same well-rotted stump of a deciduous tree in semi-ancient mixed deciduous woodland. Genus of wood unknown.
Initially, I wanted to say these were Pluteus chrysophaeus, but then I read that some authors consider this a synonym of Pluteus chrysophlebius. So, I had to investigate a bit more.
• I recently collected several basidiomes that I determined are from genus Hebeloma, but upon further reading I realised that this is a large and rather complex genus.
• Species and even section determination usually requires microscopic examination of spores and cystidia, and there are some difficult and variable species that are not currently resolved by ITS.
• Estimates of around 150 species, in 17 sections, a few with subsections too. Associated with a wide range of...
• Researchers from University of Tennessee (US) and Universidad de Alcala (Spain) propose a reorganisation of genus Inocybe, the culmination of several publications which have shown the genus to be paraphyletic.
• ‘New skin for the Old Ceremony’ is from the title of the article and is the title of Leonard Cohen’s fourth album.
• Inocybe (s.l.) is a hyperdiverse genus, estimated to contain 1050 species, mostly LBMs that can be challenging to identify morphologica...

Some great background info and video on one of our rarest birds in the Surrey area. This cryptic insectivore nests near waterfalls and other steep terrain with moist microclimates.

Hi all,
Looking forward to seeing what we can achieve this weekend. I really have no idea! Rather than spamming you all with notifications all weekend, I'll add regular updates in this post about every 4 hours during the day - including the 'annotatathometer' below! If you've missed it, details of this weekend's team activity
G'day all,
The Great Southern Bioblitz for 2023 begins today.
Get out there, take some pics and upload your observations over the next few days.
Let's make this our best year to date!

Compiled Key to Xanthoparmelia in Southern Africa
by H. Sipman, 25 Nov. 2017
The key is based on the keys for the genera Karoowia, Paraparmelia, Xanthoparmelia and the Neofuscelia group published by Hale (1989), Elix (201), Hale (1990) and Esslinger (1977), respectively. The species not known fr...

My latest short nature video, ‘Frogmouths Forever' is now on YouTube. Should you wish to have a look, the link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHIDA7sd2w0 . There is narration and natural sound on the soundtrack so make sure you have your volume on; the video is just under five minutes long.
If you watch the video I hope that you enjoy it. I trust that it will spread awareness of t...
