List of Key Initials 



To facilitate reference to books in which specific keys or descriptions 

 are found, references are given after nearly all the genera in the Key. 

 The exceptions are furnished by genera published too recently as a rule 

 to find their way into the various compendia; these may be located by 

 means of the references given in the List of Types and Synonyms (p. 233). 

 The first number after the genus regularly refers to the volume and 

 page of Saccardo's "Sylloge Fungorum" (24 volumes and Addenda). The 

 other references are preceded by an initial, except in families where the 

 initial is given under the name of the family. The following list will 

 serve to identify the authors concerned, while the bibliography will supply 

 the titles.
