Neither plant nor animal, mushrooms or fungi are mysterious organisms that range in size from microscopic to over a metre wide. What’s more, in South Africa alone there are estimated to be more than 171 500 species. Pocket Guide: Mushrooms of South Africa features a selection of the species more commonly found in the region. Detailed descriptions and colour photographs will enable enthusiasts to identify these mushrooms in the field. Edibility (or otherwise) is given, as well as poison warnings where relevant. Easy to use and in compact format, this pocket guide will appeal to both the academic and popular sectors; and it will prove invaluable on outings into the countryside, particularly among the growing number of collectors of edible mushrooms.
