Citation

North West Fungus Group (2017). Pat Livermore's Fungus Records 1976 - 2000. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/oansh5 accessed via GBIF.org on 2022-05-16.

Description

Fungi recorded in the area around Lancaster.

Purpose

Study of fungi in the Lancaster area, with some emphasis on special sites.

Sampling Description

Quality Control

The recorder as very knowledgable and did not wish anything to be uncertain. There was much correspondence with Kew and Edinburgh RBG's and visits by other mycologists. A high standard of recording. Species names have been updated using the species lists based at Kew and NBN. Doubtful records omitted.

Method steps

  1. Compilation from the written records of the recorder, based on observations on field trips and microscope work later. The assistance of other experts was often sought. Only records thought doubtful at the time have been excluded.

Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

All records are within vice-county 60, West Lancashire. Special sites such as nature reserves have some priority, some for producing reports. Records are assigned to 1km squares or site centroid.
