Abstract
A MODERN handbook dealing in a concise form with all the larger British fungi has long been desired by mycologists in this country. The appearance of Mr. Worthington G. Smith's “Synopsis” meets this desire in so far as it contains in one volume descriptions of all the British Basidiomycetes (sensu de Bary).
Synopsis of the British Basidiomycetes: a Descriptive Catalogue of the Drawings and Specimens in the Department of Botany, British Museum.
By Worthington G. Smith. Pp. 531; 5 plates and 145 figures in text. (London: Printed by order of the Trustees of the British Museum, 1908:) Price 10s.
