Melissa Klotka has been a Board Member for the past three years and is on the Events Committee. She is focused on having more events in the state of Wisconsin and trying to cover more area when setting up events in the future. She will be working on setting up forays and lectures for the upcoming year, as well as helping to organize the Fungi Fair with vendors and speakers. She has a Bachelor's of Business Administration from UW - Whitewater, and has been actively focusing on increasing the online presence that WMS has as well.

This year she is an admin on the WMS Facebook account, and runs the Instagram account, as well as making a series of short informational videos with the help of fellow board member - Rose Tursi. Melissa is enthusiastic about the year to come and continuing to improve the club to serve all of its members better. She can't wait to see all of the new and familiar faces at all of the upcoming events for WMS!

Melissa also has her own business doing art restoration. Check out her work at

Wisconsin Mycological Society (WMS) is dedicated to the study and enjoyment of mushrooms and other fungi throughout the state of Wisconsin. Education, safety, sustainability, community, and connecting with nature are our goals.  We are affiliated with NAMA, along with our 2 other Wisconsin Clubs, the Madison Mycological Society and the Northwestern Wisconsin MycoEnthusiasts.

We do not ID mushrooms through this website. 
If you are in need of an ID consider uploading quality photos and descriptions of your find to Mushroom Observer or iNaturalist including our projects or post in Wild Food Wisconsin or Mushroom Identification Group.

If You Suspect a Poisoning
If you suspect you have consumed a poisonous mushroom, contact a physician, the closest hospital ER, poison control center, or dial 911, depending on the severity of the reaction.

US Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222
