When: 2017-05-20
Collection location: Upper Ghormley Meadows on White Pass Highway, Yakima Co., Washington, USA [Click for map]
46.657°N 121.0762°W 996m [Click for map]
Who: Michael Beug (beugm)
Project: Pacific Northwest Key Council (PNKC)
Notes:
Found under Aspen in a very boggy area on May 20, 2017. I have never before seen an apricot colored Verpa. The size was quite small compared to normal Verpa bohemica – same height as typical Verpa conica but much fatter.

plus no DNA done on THIS example.
let’s allow a little wiggle room on this ID.
DNA IDs are reasonable for the sample examined, but can’t be broadly applied.
we all stand on our own merits, even the mushrooms.

1. FWIW, I saw this collection live and was struck by its color. Of course, that doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily different from V. bohemica.
2. We are trying to have this collection sequenced.
3. UNITE has a reference sequence for V. bohemica. https://unite.ut.ee/.... How do I compare the reference sequence directly to Alan’s sequence (and, eventually, to whatever results we get for this Observation)?
4. Alan: Is there any reason you prefer different names for this Observation vs observation 277119?
