Andrew Price Morgan

U.s. botanist and mycologist (1836–1907).

Andrew Price Morgan (27 October 1836 – 19 October 1907) was an American botanist and mycologist. He investigated the flora of the Miami Valley in Ohio. While his interest included flowering plants, as noted by his Flora of the Miami Valley, Ohio, his special interest was in fungi. Morgan worked as a teacher in Dayton. He studied the botany of the Great Miami River, publishing in 1878 the Flora of the Miami River, Ohio; Morgan also showed particular interest in mycology and bryology. A.P. Morgan was a mentor to the prominent American mycologist Curtis Gates Lloyd. His correspondence with Lloy

Astraeus hygrometricus (Barometer Earthstar) (Pers.) Morgan 1889
fungi species in the diplocystidiaceae family
Astraeus hygrometricus, commonly known as the hygroscopic earthstar, the barometer earthstar, or the false earthstar, is a species of fungus in the family Diplocystaceae. Despite a similar overall appearance, A. hygrometricus is not related to the true earthstars of genus Geastrum, although historically, they have been taxonomically confused. The species was first described by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1801 as Geastrum hygrometricus. In 1885, Andrew P. Morgan proposed that differences in microscopic characteristics warranted the creation of a new genus Astraeus distinct from Geastrum;
Astraeus (Barometer Earthstars) Morgan 1889
fungi genus in the diplocystidiaceae family
Astraeus is a genus of fungi in the family Diplocystaceae. The genus, which has a cosmopolitan distribution, contains nine species of earthstar mushroom. They are distinguished by the outer layer of flesh (exoperidium) that at maturity splits open in a star-shape manner to reveal a round spore sac. Additionally, they have a strongly hygroscopic character—the rays will open when moist, but when hot and dry will close to protect the spore sac. Species of Astraeus grow on the ground in ectomycorrhizal associations with trees and shrubs. Despite their similar appearance to the Geastrum

It is found in North America and Australia, mostly in prairie or grassland environments. It is reportedly edible when young.

Marasmius capillaris Morgan 1883
fungi species in the marasmiaceae family
Marasmius capillaris is a species of agaric fungus in the family Marasmiaceae. A saprobic fungus, it produces fruit bodies (mushrooms) that grows in groups on decaying oak leaves in North America. The caps on the mushrooms are convex and then centrally depressed with radial furrows, measuring 2–15 mm (0.08–0.6 in) in diameter. The wiry, shiny stems are thin (less than 1 mm thick) and up to 60 mm (2.4 in) long. Its spore print is white, and the spores are smooth and pip-shaped, measuring 7–11 by 3–5 μm. The mushrooms somewhat resemble Marasmius rotula, but are smaller and darker in color.
