With over 150 species in Britain, Russula species are some of the commonest and most beautiful fungi we see in our woodlands. Renowned for their often striking colours, unusual smells and tastes, they are also considered to be some of the most challenging fungi to identify. The culmination of 30 years study, โ€˜The Genus Russula in Great Britainโ€™ seeks to make them more accessible for identification purposes and for study.

This volume gives us a comprehensive overview of European boletes based on the latest molecular phylogenetic studies, reflecting the most current scientific understanding of these fungi, while taking a deep dive into a huge range of genera including Baorangia, Boletus, Butyriboletus, Leccinum, Rubroboletus, and many more.

Whether youโ€™re a serious researcher or a dedicated forager, this is the definitive โ€˜must-haveโ€™ reference book in the mycological world right now. Itโ€™s big, itโ€™s beautiful and worth every penny for all fungal enthusiasts.
