Dec. 02, 1999. To this day, a scientific study on varieties of fungi that exist in Curacao is lacking. I hope that by means of this photo portfolio I may be able to spur some enthusiasm into anyone who is an expert in this field, in order to commence foresaid scientific study. So far I have accumulated over 200 pictures of 17 different varieties of fungi. Because fungi are differently colored and shaped throughout their lifecycle, the amount of varieties that I have photographed may just as well be larger or smaller.
