"... he became a curator at The New York Botanical Garden, and served as editor for various Garden publications." - I would object to the capitalisation of the word "The" but I see that it this usage appears elsewhere.
In the same sentence "Garden" is capitalised, but nevertheless on my first reading of the lead I thought that he was editing books about gardening. Perhaps his role could be made clearer.
Changed to "and served as editor for various academic journals published by the Garden."
I see the image has a fair use rationale. I have heard of this but have not actually come across it before.
"He was Vice-President, President Elect, President of the Mycological Society of America in 1967, 1968, and 1969, respectively, and secretary-treasurer ..." - This sentence is a bit awkward. Perhaps it could be split.
1b The article conforms with the MOS guidelines as to style and layout.
2a&b The article is well referenced and has inline citations for all contentious statements.
2c There is no original research that I can see.
3a&b The coverage is broad enough and the article does not include irrelevant material.
4 The article is neutral.
5 The article was expanded by the nominator in early October 2013 and has hardly been edited by anybody else since.
6 The main image has a fair use rationale. It is a low resolution image and is used as a visual identification for the subject of this biographical article.
7 The two images are both relevant to the topic and have suitable captions.
