ELLIOTT, TODD

Todd Elliott is a biologist, naturalist, and forager with a passion for fungi. His work in global biodiversity and interrelationships in nature has taken him to remote corners of six continents to study the biodiversity and ecology of fungi. Most recently, he has been conducting research in Australia for his PhD on the role vertebrates play in the dispersal of fungi (truffles in particular). Todd is an author of the Timber Press field guide Mushrooms of the Southeast and has discovered and described species of mushrooms new to science. Todd’s presentations can be customized for your event to include mushroom walks and/or powerpoint lectures.
