Bethany Beech

Bethany Beech is an amateur mycologist focusing on Lactarius and Lactifluus species. After four years of being unable to find satisfying answers in books and papers, her quest led her to learn DNA sequencing and discover many undescribed species. She lives in Southern Vermont with her partner and dogs, and leads the newly resurrected Vermont Mycological Society.
