The vital role of fungi in the ecology of grasslands is becoming more widely appreciated, sparking an increasing interest in identification.
This field guide covers the species that are commonly found in meadows and other grasslands throughout the UK including the colourful waxcaps and many other fascinating species.
- 200 species with clear descriptions of each, and over 900 photographs.
- Key indentification points to help distinguish between similar species.
- Designed to be suitable for the beginner and amateur enthusiast, it will appeal to anyone with an interest in grassland mycology.
Compared to the first edition, the second edition draws on an additional three years of surveying done over a wider area. It adds 23 new species to the 177 already described in the first edition. The selection of photographs was expanded for many species by adding or substituting new photographs, particularly focusing on photos helpful for identification. Minor updates concern names (both English and scientific) where they have changed over the last few years, corrections of typos, and changes to any measurements where new surveys provided further data. The page count has increased from 336 to 400 pages.
