Myxomycetes of New Zealand

An overview of the group is given, including aspects of their biology and ecology, along with an explanation of the basic structural features of the fruiting body upon which identification is based. Dichotomous keys are provided to the different taxonomic orders of myxomycetes and to families, genera, and species within each of these orders. Each species is described, and selected examples are illustrated with line drawings and/or colour photographs.Stephenson, Steven L. is the author of 'Myxomycetes of New Zealand', published 2003 under ISBN 9789628676545 and ISBN 9628676547.
