| Review (by Malcolm Storey) | The problems of identifying fungi macro and micro, and the frequent occurrence of mysteries and undescribed species, even on common substrates in Britain. Anamorphs and teleomorphs explained and the history of the terminology. More on Helianthemum mycorrhizals. Ratio of time in the field to time in the lab. Thomas Laessoe reports three days spent generating a list of 48 species from 15 minute’s collecting in a fallen stand of dead elms. This leads to a discussion on Pluteus aurantiorugosus, briefly common in the wake of the Dutch Elm Disease pandemic. |
