Fungal families of the world
Abstract
Abstract This book aims to provide an illustrative companion to CABI's Dictionary of the fungi and reflect recent changes in classification, to provide further information on the 536 currently accepted families of fungi, and to depict the great range of morphological structures found among the fungi, so helping to stimulate interest in the subject. The families are listed in alphabetical order and for each there is a brief description of morphology, one or more photographs (where available), a list of significant genera, notes on the geographical distribution, economic significance and ecology, general notes, and a list of references. The book also contains a 54-page glossary and a list that includes common synonyms as well as accepted families.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
