The process of enriching the Fungi Information System (SIF) continues with the acquisition of specimens from private herbaria, in order to ensure the preservation of mycological data and their availability to the scientific community.

On August 30 and 31, 2025, the Mico Weekend will take place in Trento—a weekend dedicated to the fascinating world of fungi, promoted by MUSE – Science Museum of Trento.
Two days to explore the fungal kingdom through species identification, etymology, and coevolution, with the support of experts in the field.

The collaboration between ISPRA and the Italian Alpine Club (CAI) continues for the census and monitoring of fungi in Italy, with the aim of integrating hiking activities with the collection of mycological data useful for biodiversity conservation.

Racconti di scienza” programme aired on 10 June 2025 on Rai Scuola, Professor Solveig Tosi, systematic botanist at the University of Pavia, describes the ecological roles of fungi and their potential for the future.

From 30 May to 2 June 2025, the 12th Scientific Committee of A.MI. Umbria will take place in Foligno (PG), organized in collaboration with the Gruppo Micologico Naturalistico Folignate.
