Flora of the Greater Antilles Symposium 2000

The Flora of the Greater Antilles Symposium 2000 will be held at The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York, U.S.A., on Friday, 23 June and Saturday, 24 June 2000. The program will consist of several principal speakers who will present papers on the background for the understanding of the flora and fungi of the region. A poster session is open to all participants. Posters from persons who cannot attend can be sent with persons who are attending the meeting. [NO poster will be accepted unless it is brought and displayed by a participant]. Lodging will be available at Fordham University, across the street from The New York Botanical Garden. To request poster abstract forms and preregistration forms contact: T. Zanoni, New York Botanical Garden, Bronx,. NY 10458-5126, USA. Fax (718) 562-6780 or email TZANONI@NYBG.ORG. Please indicate if your home or funding institution needs a letter of invitation for your participation in the symposium.

From D. Jean Lodge, Basidiomycetes of the Greater Antilles Group

The Basidiomycetes Group had an expedition to Jamaica in June, 1999. The Corticiaceae and Heterobasidiomycetes were very abundant in the early part of the rainy season. Part of our group stayed in the Blue Mountains, while the other part travelled around the island. While the agaric fungi were not very abundant, several turned out to be new species. We are contemplating submitting a new proposal to the NSF Biotic Surveys & Inventories Program to explore this island more thoroughly.

A participant in the 1997 trips to Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, N. W. Legon, published an illustrated (color photographic) report. [Legon, N. W. 1999. A mycological expedition to Puerto Rico. Mycologist 13: 58-62.]

These expeditions were funded in part by NSF Biotic Surveys & Inventories Program grant DEB-95-25902.
