Watling, R. & Turnbull, E., 1998
Cantharellaceae, Gomphaceae & Amyloid-Spored and Xeruloid Members of Trichlomataceae (excl. Mycena)
The 8th volume in the series and the longest title yet!
This work covers several genera which have little in common beyond amyloid spores and/or xeruloid fruitbodies, but this is actually quite a useful selection and includes a number of little kown taxa. It includes all genera which contain one or more members falling within the above definition.
There is no key to families, but the non-Tricholomataceae genera are easily recognised and well known. Most taxa covered fall within Tricholomataceae. Each family begins with a key to genera, followed by generic keys with detailed species descriptions.
