Orson K. Miller, mycologist, has died
    #5807800 - 06/30/06 09:14 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

Dr Orson K Miller, Jr, one of the great mycologists, passed on on June 9 from complications from brain cancer.

He wrote numerous books on mycology and taught the subject for many years. Many current professional mycologists learned mycology from him.

Among other things, he was responsible for the creation of the genus Chroogomphus, which he split off from Gomphidius.

RIP :frown:

This is sad indeed.. Didn't he just release a book? I couldn't find  any articles about his death. Just an obituary.. :frown:
