Translated from the original, published as Vol. 46 of the 1989 Journal Hoppea. This edition of Stangl’s excellent monograph on Inocybe was originally published by the Regensburg Botany Society in the journal Hoppea (vol.46).
Although based on a life’s work in Bavaria the book covers species found throughout central Europe and is applicable to other regions including Britain.
Previously unavailable in English, this translation is the outcome of a British Mycological Society Workshop on the Genus Inocybe in 2009. Dr Andreas Bresinsky, who was central in the production of the original German edition says, ‘The commitment and care towards this undertaking which this group has displayed is worthy of the highest recognition.’
The translation preserves all the original text, with descriptions of individual species on one page and Stangl’s precise microscopic drawings on the facing page. Johann Stangl’s colour plates are reproduced as faithfully as possible using his original watercolours (lent by Dr Bresinsky) for comparison. The book contains Stangl’s key to the genus and an updated Index which includes a column stating the frequency of each species in Britain. This is also indicated in the species descriptions thus providing a checklist of British species.
