Rezensionen
"This book represents a massive undertaking, involved 47 contributors, is splendidly produced and illustrated, and is surely destined to be the reference on the phylum for the foreseeable future. It really opened my eyes to the enormous diversity and importance of these "newcomers" to kingdom Fungi, and I have no doubt that most mycologists will have a similar reaction." (IMA Fungus, 1 December 2014)
