Description:

New edition. This book takes the beginner from the first experience of foraying for fungi to some confidence in naming the genus of a cap and stem mushroom (agaricoid Basidiomycete), using the book, a collecting box and a magnifying glass.

Basic principles and vocabulary are dealt with and a section on microscopy helps the enthusiastic forayer to gain competence in a firm diagnosis of genus. All modern genera that are recognised in the UK are included.
