Description
Description:
The volumes of Flora Mycologica Iberica describe and document the variety and nature of the fungi of the Iberian Peninsula. At the same time the volumes provide keys for the identification of the species treated.
As fungi differ considerably, their study requires a certain degree of specialization. On the other hand, some groups have received a greater degree of attention than others.
All volumes of Flora Mycologica Iberica are bilingual (english/spanish) and are profusely illustrated. They are edited by the Real Jardin Botanico, Madrid, the botanical Garden of Madrid, Spain.
This volume of Flora Mycologica Iberica contains the descriptions of all species of the genus Laboulbenia (Laboulbeniales, Ascomyceta) which were reported from the Iberian realm (Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands). The catalogue comprises 63 accepted and two uncertain species. The work follows in the vein of previous volumes of the series, but the uniqueness of the Laboulbeniales required that the “Methods of Study” section be expanded and information on habitat and distribution was added. A glossary of terms complements the text, some of them specific to the genus Laboulbenia. An alphabetical list of Iberian hosts along with their respective parasitic fungi rounds off this volume.
