 In 1991 , at the earliest possible date , Moser retired from his teaching position to avoid the administrative burden and to focus on his research into Cortinarius and related genera . After his retirement , he continued to work heavily , typically beginning at 5 am . In 1992 , he researched the presence of Agaricales in the Crimean Mountains , identifying 70 previously undocumented species , including some new to science . In 1995 , in celebration of Moser 's 70th birthday , a supplement of Sydowia was published in his honour .
