How Complete | Keys to 850 genera of non-lichenised Asco- and Basidiomycota from Northern Europe |
Review (by Malcolm Storey) | A synoptic key to 850 genera of Asco- and Basidiomycota from Northern Europe. Mycokey aims to get the user to the genus, generally the most difficult part of any fungal identification by means of a synoptic key. You’re advised to only enter the characters you’re sure of. Most of the genera have photographs to help with the final decision and the DVD contains PDF’s of the keys from Funga Nordica for taking it further. Uses the well-established, cross-platform 4D database engine (http://4d.com) |
