This 10th edition, of the acclaimed reference work, has more than 21,000 entries, and provides the most complete listing available of generic names of fungi, their families and orders, their attributes and descriptive terms. For each genus, the authority, the date of publication, status, systematic position, number of accepted species, distribution, and key references are given. Diagnoses of families and details of orders and higher categories are included for all groups of fungi. In addition, there are biographic notes, information on well-known metabolites and mycotoxins, and concise accounts of almost all pure and applied aspects of the subject (including citations of important literature). Co-published by: Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)
This dictionary, now in its 52nd year, aims to provide all those who work with fungi a way into our accumulated knowledge on them. This edition is the first to accept that fungi have to be dispersed through three kingdoms of eukaryotes: Chromista, Fungi, and Protozoa. This edition also has several other new features: a) the inclusion of a key to the accepted families for the first time since the fifth ed. em 1961; b) a synopsis of the genera referred to particular orders and families; c) notes on major mycological collections and cross references to their acronyms; d) the revision of most general entries by specialists; d) the separate listing of many prefixed terms; f) the inclusion of entries for all accepted families and some frequently used synonyms; g) the inclusion of illustrations adjacent to the appropriate entries; and h) a larger page size to help its stay-open factor.
This is the one essential handbook for all who work with or are interested in fungi (including lichens, slime moulds, and yeasts). This new edition, with 20,000 entries, provides the most complete listing of generic names of and terms used to describe fungi available. For each genus, the authority, the date of publication, status, systematic position, number of accepted species, distribution, and key references are given. Diagnoses of families, orders and higher categories are included for most groups. In addition, there are biographic notes, information on well-known metabolites and mycotoxins, and broad accounts of almost all pure and applied aspects of the subject (including citations of important literature). In addition the eighth edition has the following new features: a revised general classification of fungal phyla reflecting the latest molecular evidence; entries for all recognized families, including authorship and date of publication; a dichotomous identification key to the recognized families in all groups (the first to appear since 1931); a synopsis of the proposed classification: with accepted genera listed, families, etc.; entries for major fungal reference and genetic resource collections; illustrations updated and placed in text; and new entries for terms used in biology where they are relevant to mycology.
