Re: Split Gill - Schizophyllum commune

Ken
Thanks for Schizophyllum info. I have now found it on wood at Attenborough Nature Reserve in Nottinghamshire. The photo is on page 13 (today) of the Gallery. but I think I should be able to link it as follows:



The big problem with common names it they often do not indicate which fungi are closely related and which are not. It is much more beneficial to be able to learn to recognise each genus first and worry about the species latter.
