How much do we know about #AquaticFungi in peatlands? Very very very little. Just FYI--in case anyone is looking for interesting ideas....

FUNACTION members Andreas Bruder🇨🇭 and Diego Fontaneto🇮🇹 sampled for #aquaticfungi in the Val Grande National Park, Italy.

More data gathered on occurrence and distribution of aquatic fungi in Europe (particularly inside Protected Areas). 💪

Check out our latest dispatch where we make a (very convincing ☺️) case that marine #mycology is the next big thing and highlight a recent paper by Breyer et al.

Marine fungi have biomass = 22 MILLION blue whales!

5/ Day 2: fewer technical glitches, equal amounts of fun! We hosted a podcast session on the Global Freshwater Fauna Assessment, from a hot sauna pod (which explains my facial expression). Included: a shoutout to #aquaticfungi, freshwater #sponges, plus of course freshwater #molluscs - shell yeah!

Last week Swiss #MoSTFun team sampled the Basòdino glacier in Ticino, to look for #aquaticfungi. 💧🍄

This is part of a larger sampling campaign to fill the knowledge gap on aquatic fungi diversity associated to glaciers.

Get in touch if you want to know more about our work or collaborate with us.

Well done @huzefaraj.bsky.social 🎉

Thanks for bringing this news species of #aquaticfungi to our knowledge!
We are one species closer to knowing the estimated 2.5 millions existing species of #Funga.
