Tis the season to see Fungi, fa la la la la....

Just a quick side note some of the fung amongst us may have noticed, it's nice to see that an official Red data list has been published for British fungi.

Although British fungal Red Data Lists were published in 1992 and 2006, neither of these were officially approval by the JNCC. This latest list is based on DNA analysis so makes it more robust I guess.

Do you have a link to it?

 

I've only seen the pilot RDL assessment regarding the Boletaceae

 

Is the full 2013 Fungi RDL now available?

I can't seem to find the full list, but just relaying news that I read via Kew. I'm sure it must be public domain by now. I can only find the pilot as mentioned. Boletaceae No.14 Edit. In regards to the RDB fungal lists I should say.

I've had a nose around and have been informed that the (Boletaceae) pilot is currently the only updated list available and it may be some time until a full list goes live.

spotted this next door to where I was working today,so hopped over the fence for the picks, I was going to call on the owner to say I think its Honey fungus then I thought I would run it by you guys for confirmation to avoid making a tit out of myself.
