Geotropic fungi

Really interesting Mr H. Another good thread mate.

Thanks for the input,

which dusty tomes would these be AC ?

 

 

 

.

 

No worries.

 

I got the info from Growth and Differentiation in Plants, 3rd edition by P.F.Wareing and I.D.J.Phillips.

 

An interesting book, but can be a bit heavy going at times. I don't mind admitting that I needed to use a biology dictionary to help me understand it in some places.

Nice Gano SJH

Is it on Birch?

 

 

Tony, I don't believe you haven't got something pictorish to contribute.

 

Get them up here

 

Or are you saving them for sommit

 

 

 

I saw huge numbers of Fomes on Beech last October in Spain, can't believe I didn't come across any geotropes, it's the classic n'all

oh i have a few here and there, though i do generaly try to focus my atention on getting images of the classic form of the species as pictorial reference. My aim to provide as detailed and comprehensive a catalouge as possible. I wouldnt hold back on you guys, I am the sharing kind!

 

I have that many photos I spend about 2hrs a week putting them into folders so that i can find what i am looking for quickly, but its a slow slow proscess and I just cant lay my hands on a particular image set that quickly yet.

 

Im still finding errors within my files from the early days when I wasnt so clued up and iD mistakes are something I do not wish to perpetuate, especialy on the eternal record of AT!

 

I am starting to think though that with all this sharing of these images I am in danger of repetitions at a later date!

Could do with uping my Pc management skills meself.

 

Have alphabetical folders of fung & inverts, but outside of these are ridiculous numbers of ones either un or miss Id'd.

 

 

 

I hope to get to the nirvana of teutonic cataloguing, sometime around my sixties

What do you/it mean- teutonic catolouging?

[David Humphries]

an anal inclination for being overly precise, exact & specific in anything & everything.

 

 

Much like our fine German cousins

I have to confess to trying hard to be more "that" way inclined, they are efficient and clinical but thats not a bad thing, balance i guess, they are a little dry, with the exception of mr Claus!
