This first phase of the project consists of expanding on the work carried out in previous years. By achieving the proposed objectives, it will be possible to assemble a structure that will allow us to continue with the second phase of the project, which will be the identification of all possible toxic edible mushrooms. The main objectives are:
- To organize and adapt the material collected since 1983, both bibliographic and herbarium.
- To standardize the herbarium with international standards to make it a useful reference tool, unique in the country to date.
- To acquire relevant documentation on macromycetes and prepare sufficient material to continue with the second phase of the study.
- To create the necessary conditions for the Mycology Laboratory to be considered a national reference center for macromycetes and be prepared to respond to any inquiries that may arise.
