Whilst stumbling around the internet to try to find info pointing towards a possible ID of a myxo found yesterday, I chanced upon this site: -
Eumycetozoan Research Project and was quite surprised by the amount of info on there. (As an absolute novice, I found the introduction to myxomycetes in the educational materials section very interesting).
Now, I appreciate WAB's policy preference for not directly linking to, or advertising other sites, but I couldn't think of any way to bring this to the attention of WAB's fungi fans, without showing the link.
So, delete this if you must Mods, but I think being aware of that site could prove useful for anyone with an interest in Myxomycetes/slimemoulds.
This has also got me thinking - There must be several excellent fungi dedicated sites on the net, of which WAB's fungi forum devotees may or may not be aware.
Would it be acceptable perhaps, to have a dedicated thread within WAB's fungi forum where members could actually mention the names of sites found useful, (or better still, include a link
), so that other members who are not aware, might benefit ? - Surely the making available of such info, no matter what the source, can only be to the good.
Any thoughts on the idea? (Don't all shoot me down at once
).
Regards
Mike.
