Seller's Description:
Fine. Not Issued with a Dust Jacket. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. 363 pages, illustrated in b&w. "This book is a compilation of research from around the globe that documents a diversity of fungi and the critical roles they play in the forest health and function. Wherever forests flourish, fungi establish themselves as saprophytes that decompose wood, as mycorrhizal mutualists on roots, internal endophytes, epiphtic lichens, and parasites that attack living trees. The intricacies of fungal form, function, interaction, evolutionary history and geographic distribution are brought to light for over 1500 Taxa (17 new) of fungi, lichens, and myxomycetes. This volume is dedicated to the eminent mycologist Orson M. Miller, Jr., and included is life story and a list of his described Taxa, and complete bibliography." FINE HARDCOVER.
