Etat : new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (New, Hardcover, 2022). (2011) 2022 2nd edition reprint. 8vo (152 x 216mm). Pp448. Colour photographs throughout, brief bibliography. Pictorial laminated boards, issued without a dust-wrapper. Fine new copy. A new reprint of the 2nd edition of Pat O'Reilly's splendid field guide. Extremely thorough and very well illustrated with photographs by the author, as he takes us, more or less literally, to look at one species after another. O'Reilly is extremely good on the habitats in which each species lives, and the plant species associated with them - the book shows you how to identify the habitat first, including the appropriate grasses, flowers or trees, and then the fungus in question. Related subjects such as taxonomy and nomenclature are also usefully discussed, as is a species' palatability or otherwise, where appropriate, and the odd recipe. Chapters include: Kingdom of the underworld; Breeding habits and feeding habits; Wood, trees and woodlands; Friends of the forest - ectomycorrhizal fungi; Tree parasites and other hangers-on; The rest of the rotters; Grass, grasses and grasslands; Grassland fungi; Mushrooms on the margin; Forays for food, fun and photography; Glossary of mycological terms; Meaning of scientific names of fungi species; Citation of mycological authorities; Other fungi information sources; Scientific names; Common names. An excellent book which must surely become a classic. Possibly the only work which can sit comfortably next to Roger Phillips' Mushrooms. . N° de réf. du vendeur 57113

Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. This is a new reprint of the enlarged second and final edition of the author's well written and engaging guide to the world of fungi, Reminiscent to some extent of both Mushrooms and Toadstools (1960) by John Ramsbottom and Fungi (2005) by Brian Spooner and John Roberts, both in the New Naturalist series, the enthusiasm for the subject matter is clearly evident. O'Reilly's book is largely focused on fungi found in the UK and he approaches the subject in an engaging conversational manner with lots of anecdotal but interesting observations, Covering all the basics, and more, there is a wealth of colour photographs, over 1000 in all, A useful and handsomely produced book for beginners and expert alike This 2nd edition incorporates recent taxonomic name changes resulting from recent DNA analysis, together with previously common synonyms and the British Mycological Society's recommended English names of fungi.
