Rogers Mushrooms | Mushroom Pictures &Mushroom Reference: Nov 11, 2006 7:47pm 42 reviews botany, images, free-tools
http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/; RogersMushrooms via Metafilter / owhydididoit, in RogersMushrooms Online.
The site is based on Roger Phillips seminal work 'Mushrooms and other fungi of Great Britain and Europe' and the similar book published on the mushrooms and Fungi of North America. Roger's twenty-year study will make the site the most complete collection of photographs and mushroom information from both sides of the Atlantic ever assembled. We already have over 3000 images on our site to help you identify and learn more about the mushrooms of Europe and North America! RogersMushrooms is now completely free to access! RogersMushrooms

Excellent guide of mushrooms in the EU and in the US. I'm a plucker and find it strange that, in the US, books on mushrooms are not available in bookstores while in Europe you find them in most bookstores. But ok why complain when RogersMushrooms is free. This year mushrooms were plentiful in Wisconsin. We mostly ate Coprinus comatus (coprin chevelu) and Russula aeruginea

http://www.listible.com/; via ResearchBuzz: """ This is a nifty idea. Have a place where people can make lists of various online resources, share the lists, comment on them, and vote on the Web resources included in the lists. Potentially quite useful! I just wish there were more comments and a couple extra features... """
