At the top of each page there are links to all the major pages so you can go back and forth as you please. On all the mushroom pages there are links to the main mushroom groups as you see above this paragraph and below the title. Also on the left of each picture page there are links to all individual pages showing mushrooms. I would recommend to anyone new to mushrooms to view the General info page before browsing the mushroom photos, the information on that page will greatly facilitate your understanding of the descriptions. If you are really interested in mushrooms and would like to get into it, check out my books page .
Mushrooms are unique.
They are neither animal or plant. Some people consider them plants for various reasons, but they differ from plants in that they lack the green chlorophyll that plants use to manufacture their own food and energy. Mushrooms are also unique within the Fungal Kingdom itself, because they produce the complex fruiting body which we all know as 'The Mushroom', all of the mushrooms are placed in a division called 'Eumycota' meaning 'The True Fungi'. The True Fungi are what we all know as mushrooms. They are divided into other groups depending on the structure of their fruiting bodies and various other macro and microscopic characteristics.
