Review (by Malcolm Storey)

A photomicrograph of Botryobasidium conspersum illustrates how easy it is to get good photomicrographs with modern digital cameras.

Disucssion on the modern molecular approach to uniting anamorph and teleomorph.

Remarks on abundance of spring fungi this year. Inocybe erubescens also fruiting very early.

Lactarius helvus growing with Salix herbacea (later corrected to Arctostaphylos) at c550m at Glen Affric, Inverness. It is normally found under conifers or birch.

"Pluteus bullii" - a name sometimes used for a large form of Pluteus cervinus, is discussed and its cystidium illustrated ("atypical" in the caption refers to P. cervinus - it is quite typical of the "bullii" form).

UK collections of Gymnopilus dilepis are reported to have been verified from DNA.

Errata, Corrigenda & CommentsAssociated plant corrected to *Arctostaphylos* in the next issue.
