Northern Utah Funga NUF

Launched in summer 2021, Northern Utah Funga (NUF) is MSU's community science project that helps document fungal biodiversity for science and conservation.

We add our high quality macrofungi observations to this project. All MSU Members are welcome to NUF forays (yes, even children!).

NUF is a local project of the Fungal Diversity Survey (FunDiS), North America's only nonprofit for fungal biodiversity and conservation.
 
NUF intends to contribute high quality macrofungi (mushroom) observations to FunDiS’ diversity database using iNaturalist. NUF intends to describe the macrofungi of northern Utah, including rare, potentially-threatened, and under-documented species. NUF plans to maintain a collection of northern Utah fungi for use in DNA sequencing, vouch specimens in curated fungaria, and lead mycology community science in northern Utah.

What is Funga? The word Funga parallels existing terminology of Flora and Fauna, and refers to the diversity of fungi in a place.
