This occurence list is a result of 210 forays conducted by the New Jersey Mycological Association, USA (www.njmyco.org).NJMA is a non-profit citizen science organization whose aims are to provide a means for sharing ideas, experiences, knowledge and common interests regarding fungi, and to furnish mycological information and educational materials to those who wish to increase their knowledge about mushrooms.Forays took place during May-November and were open to anyone wishing to participate, including non-members. Each foray was led by a seasoned member of NJMA. At each foray, fungal fruit bodies were observed and collected by ca. 20-30 attendees. Collecting took place during the course of two hours on land within a ca. 1-mile radius from the starting point (see latitude and longitude for each foray location). Species were identified immediately using field guides, other printed works, and various online resources. We acknowledge the participation of all citizens who joined the forays.This data set is featured in a publication:Shumskaya M., Filippova N., Lorenzen L., Blue S., Andrew C., Lorusso N.S.
