Notes

As a result of the Record of Decision (1994), Bureau of Land Management and United States Forest Service planning documents within the range of the northern spotted owl specified guidelines for surveying for 'rare' and 'uncommon' fungi species. This document included a list of 28 of the 80+ species and varieties of coral fungi (ramaria) then known to occur in the Pacific Northwestern United States. At that time, the Ramaria species descriptions were scattered throughout various journals and books. Until now, there has been no single key written to identify all species known to occur in the region. This publication offers a key to all Ramaria species now known to occur in the Pacific Northwestern United States. This treatment covers the four subgenera assigned to the genus Ramaria; these include the subgenera Lentoramaria, Echinoramaria, Ramaria, and Laeticolora. Summary descriptions extracted fro previous publications and color photographs (if available) are provided for all species. In addition, a new species is described from NW Oregon, subg. Laeticolora, Ramaria rasilisporoides.
