Galli, R., 1999

I Tricholomi

A lavishly illustrated work with many beautiful colour photographs.

Although the selection of species reflects the Italian origin, most of our species are represented, plus the likely candidates for new arrivals encouraged by global warming.

Two keys to sections (p37), one using microscopy, the other based solely on macroscopic characters; keys to species within each section. Species accounts with drawings of microscopy and abundant colour photographs.

Keys in Italian and English, species accounts in Italian.
