Naming a mushroom takes more than a glance at its cap. Roy Watling guides the collector through identifying the larger fungi, from where to look and how to collect to the microscopic details that separate the agarics and their relatives. A practical, systematic key for the serious mushroom hunter. For anyone ready to move beyond guesswork in the woods. Learn to name the fungi with confidence.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
