Wettstein R (1885) Fungi in O. Stapf: Die botanischen Ergebnisse der polakschen Expedition nach Persien im Jahre 1882. Denkschr. Akad. Wiss. Wien 50: 1-4. Studies of fungal diversity in northern Thailand Thailand is rich in tropical forests where fungi and fungi-like organisms are hyperdiverse. Many areas however, remain unexplored, thus, many organisms still await discovery and identification. The National Science Foundation provided funds that support a program that provides opportunities to aspiring mycologists to carry out studies on fungi and fungi-like organisms in northern Thailand. Selected undergraduate and graduate students from the United States and Thailand participated in the workshop on “Fungal Diversity in Northern Thailand” in June 2011. The students were able to interact with International mycologists from various universities in the United States and Thailand who gave them educational experiences related to biodiversity. Dr. Steve Stephenson, the program coordinator from the University of Arkansas and Dr. Steve Miller, one of the co-directors from the University of Wyoming facilitated the workshop. They shared their expertise in microfungi and macrofungi as well as fungi-like organisms such as myxomycetes. Dr. Kevin D. Hyde of Mae Fah Luang University and Dr. Saisamorn Lumyong of Chiang Mai University were also involved in the program. Dr. Stephenson, explaining to the students the does and don’t’s in collecting fungal specimens.
Dr. Miller, showing the students Lactarius sp. and Rhizophogun (truffles) collected from Doi Inthanon. Various study sites in northern Thailand were chosen based on the accessibility and diversity of the area. These include, Doi Inthanon, Doi Suthep, Mae Sae, Mushroom Research Center and Pamathikaram temple. The laboratory activities, lectures, processing of samples and analyzing of data were all conducted at the Mushroom Research Centre. The students from different countries (America, China, Laos, Myanmar, Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand) worked together in processing of samples and analyzing data that helped them develop camaraderie and understand the value of team work.
