ABSTRACT: Held in honor of legendary Cornell discomycetologist and Mycotaxon cofounder, the Richard P. Korf Memorial North American Ascomycete Foray (colloquially referred to as “The Korf Foray”) and Purchase Knob AscoBlitz are believed to represent the first ascomycete-focused forays ever conducted in the United States. Modeled after the meetings of the Pacific Northwest Key Council and the ascomycete field workshops of northern Europe, both events took place in mid-August of 2023 in western North Carolina, at the Highlands Biological Station and Appalachian Highlands Science Learning Center, respectively.
