Australia is world-renowned for its often extraordinary and unique natural environment including many of its plants and animals. This beautiful little book highlights an often overlooked, but just as remarkable, aspect of our natural world: Australias fungi. Many are brightly coloured, some fluorescent; some are elegant, others squat; some are fragrant, more still are highly toxic. This field guide showcases many of these species in all their splendour.
Tony Young is regarded as one of the foremost experts on Australian fungi, with a special interest in toxic species. He has been formally studying fungi for many decades, with his interest starting at the age of 11 when he was given a book on Australian fungi. Tony has provided most of the photos in this book.
