Review (by Malcolm Storey)

Keys to families, subfamilies, multi-access keys using various groups of characters. The species accounts are then embedded in classical dichotomous family keys, with drawings of microscopy etc.

Text in French.

Errata, Corrigenda & Comments

The colour plates were re-issued with much better printing.

NewsSubsequent DNA work on Leccinum has shown the majority of new species introduced by Lannoy & Estades to be merely habitat-induced variations.
Examine in the Hand ( Compound Microscope is also useful)
Specimen PreparationCut flesh for colour changes. Microscopy needed in some sections, esp Xerocomus and Leccinum.
Identification difficultyXerocomus and Leccinum, in the modern sense, require careful examination.
