squiresk Posted February 7, 2003 I've just found. http://www.rbg.vic.gov.au/biodiversity/dat...lisr/mapper.htm Bluemeanie, you may be interested in this. For example http://www.rbg.vic.gov.au/biodiversity/dat...uginosa&map=aus and click a red dot http://www.rbg.vic.gov.au/biodiversity/dat...umber%3D2069119 Love it! Kai. By the way, anyone know of a relatively simple key for all mushrooms. Just something to help start an identification, then you can go on to further investigations. I've recently been taking pix of any cool mushrooms I find and want to try to start to identify some, but its difficult to start, without some kind of reference.

Rev Posted February 8, 2003 Beware the LBM's! (little brown mushrooms) Try and find a local text The victorian naturalists association (?) is a good starting point They support the fungimap project also http://www.hiddenforest.co.nz/fungi/idguide.htm and the CSIRO Like the hiddenforest site it should break down mushrooms into forms and spore colours - the 2 most helpful initial characteristics in ID With many you can only go so far - like to Genus before you enter into taxonomic no-mans land, where Mycologists battle it out tooth and nail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squiresk Posted February 8, 2003 Cheers Reville, That NZ site is just what I was looking for. A good starting point. LBMs don't interest me, identfication-wise. Kai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiders Posted February 8, 2003 I can never get those RBGV links to work. When they did last time the info was all questionable. LBM's interest me very,very much... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiders Posted February 8, 2003 I must inform Hiddenforest that Australiana is a misnomer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
