My girlfriend actually got me Brodo and Sharnoff for christmas! It's made me consider giving Cladonia another try (I previously was trying to apply Macrolichens of the Pacific North West to California lichens, and was foiled by their not really bothering with most of the genus). Would Hinds and Hinds be at all useful for west coast species? I know many lichens are pretty cosmopolitan, but still, there's a limit.
Thanks for the link, btw, it looks incredibly useful. Somehow in my googling I haven't managed to run across that before.
Do you know of any good and/or recent general lichenology texts, or mycology texts with reasonable coverage of lichens? So far most of my general knowledge of them comes from the supplementary materials in field guides, with Brodo and Sharnoff being the best by far.
Also some very delicious edible mushrooms out there like Morel, Hen of the Woods, Chantrelle, Puffballs, etc. that you can just find. Picked probably 5 pounds of hens a couple weeks ago, roasted those bad boys, and added to a jambalaya-ish recipe. It was awesome. Gotta be careful and know what your looking for though. There are definitely some mushrooms out there that you DO NOT want to eat. You'll be a goner a couple days later. You can probably find a local mushroom hunting club to get some experience and this book is pretty legit. It's for Illinois and surrounding states but would be fine for pretty much the whole midwest. Never eat a mushroom you are unsure about! There are old mushroom hunters and bold mushroom hunters, but there are no old-bold mushroom hunters.
For those interested, there is an absolutely gorgeous 'field guide' (in quotes because the thing is ENORMOUS and serves more as a coffee-table book than anything) called Lichens of North Amrerica which is filled to the brim with photos of these organisms.
I've had the same itch. Here's the magic rooting hormone, as far as I can tell (I think I'm at the same point as you). If I actually get around to buying it and trying it out, I'll let you know.
Edit: And how awesome is this?!
