| Review (by Malcolm Storey) | The conifer species, G. tsugae from North America and G. valesiacum from Europe were very similar. The original G. lucidum in Europe is distinct from American and far Eastern collections bearing the same name, and that American G. lucidum is the same as American G. resinaceum. |
