A Field Guide To The Fungi Of Australia
A Field Guide To The Fungi Of Australia
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Many of Australia's fungi are brightly colored, some flourescent; some are elegant, others squat; some are fragrant, more still are highly toxic. This book showcases many of these species in all their splendor.
More than two-thirds of the text is devoted to species descriptions. The illustrations for identification include beautiful watercolors by Kay Smith, as well as color photographs and line drawings. This is a major revision of Tony Young's Common Australian Fungi, a Naturalists' Guide, with new illustrations and completely revised species list and keys to reflect recent taxonomic changes.
