  1. I'm really happy with the attention you're bringing to fungi! Posted 10 years ago
    1. I was surprised how many different mushrooms I've seen last weekend. Unfortunately most of them were too old to be pictured. Still have some waiting to be identified.

    2. Ferdy, I have a feeling there is something wrong with the Pioneer medal. Would you check the algorithm? My rough estimations are that I've introduced about 115-120 species, I don't know exactly. Not of big importance for me, but please check it. Posted 10 years ago
      1. Thanks for reporting this, after investigation I can confirm that it is a bug. You have introduced 121 species currently, so you should have gotten 2 medals.

        I've added it to the todo list, but please note that development is paused until next year, as announced earlier. I will fix this eventually though.

The Blusher is the common name for several closely related species of the genus Amanita. A. rubescens, found in Europe and eastern North America, and A. novinupta in western North America. Both their scientific and common names are derived from the propensity of their flesh to turn pink on bruising, or cutting.
