Introducing myself edit
I am David Orlovich, a botanist and mycologist at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand. My user name Robigalia is the name of an ancient Roman festival that is named for the Roman god Robius. I chose this name partly because it came about as close as I could find to a fungus celebration, but mostly because I am a cat person.
