Timothy J. Baroni, distinguished professor emeritus of biological sciences, was lead author with 10 colleagues from Puerto Rico, Denmark, Peru and the U.S. on the peer reviewed publication “Four new species of Morchella from the Americas” in the journal Mycologia. New species of morels, highly prized gourmet mushrooms, were described from the mountain regions in the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Peru and the southwestern U.S. using morphological and multigene molecular phylogenetic data. Baroni was also a co-author with Rachel Swenie, Ph.D., a student at the University of Tennessee, and her mentor P. Brandon Matheny, on the peer reviewed article “Six new species and reports of Hydnum (Cantharellales) from eastern North America” in the journal MycoKeys. Baroni provided collections with detailed descriptions from the Cortland Herbarium (CORT) that were generated by him and also by his former students from the field mycology courses held at the Outdoor Education Center at Raquette Lake from 1980’s through 2000. At least one of these collections was selected as an epitype, a collection that anchors the concept of the species. Color images of collections by Baroni were also used in the publication to help document these tooth fungi from the northeast.
