"Featuring more than 1,000 species of higher fungi found in the British Isles and northern Europe, from the most common to the rarest and including some never hitherto published photographically, this is the most comprehensive photographic handbook for the dedicated mycologist, general naturalist or mushroom hunter collecting for the cooking pot." "The Encyclopedia of Fungi is the first comprehensive photographic field guide to reflect the extensive changes that have taken place recently in the naming and taxonomic arrangement of British and European fungi. It is written in the author's usual informal but authoritative style and includes an introduction to mushroom biology, a guide to the tools and methods of foraging for mushrooms and an explanation of the route by which a specimen should be accurately determined. It also provides keys, a glossary and a full index, making it a central reference source or a self-contained and comprehensive guide to the practical study and collection of fungi."--BOOK JACKET.

The fifth order of the natural kingdom is made up of an estimated 1.5 million species of fungi, found in every habitat type worldwide. The Book of Fungi takes 600 of the most remarkable fleshy fungi from around the world and reproduces each at its actual size, in full colour, and accompanied by a scientific explanation of its distribution, habitat, association, abundance, growth form, spore colour and edibility. Location maps give at-a-glance indications of each species known global distribution, and specially commissioned engravings show different fruitbody forms and provide the vital statistics of height and diameter. Theres a place, too, for readers to discover the more bizarre habits of fungi from the predator that hunts its prey with lassos to the one that entices sows by releasing the pheromones of a wild boar. Mushrooms, morels, puffballs, toadstools, truffles, chanterelles fungi from habitats spanning the poles and the tropics, from the highest mountains to our own gardens are all on display in this definitive work.
