Review (by Malcolm Storey)

Illustrates the ease of finding novel fungi with a record of fruiting Marchandiomyces aurantiacus in the author’s backgarden - the first British record of the perfect state, accompanied by the first European record of a Efibulobasidium rolleyi.

Also recounts recent new sites for Hazel Gloves, and a group of gastermomycetes including Pepperpot.
