Review (by Malcolm Storey)

After the record of Candelabra Coral, Alick suggests other spectacular extinctions to refind: Gomphus clavatus, Pycnoporus cinnabarinus, Hygrophorus erubescens and H. russula.

Aleurodiscus wakefieldiae has also turned up again after a long gap (58 years).

Ash Die-back and the threat it poses to RBG Kew is discussed.

The column concludes by noting a 1990’s record of Ophiocordyceps clavulata.
