Note: This is the 'lite' version of the application. It is fully functional in all details except for the number of mushrooms available in the sample database.

This application features the most complete series of some 2,400 photographs of over 1,550 Wild Mushrooms and other fungi. It includes edible, hallucinogenic, poisonous mushrooms, truffles and brackets. All of which have been collected in the wild by Roger and many other senior mycologists from both America and Europe. Apart from the detailed photographs that show each mushroom from many different angles. A lot of other helpful information is included to help with identification; descriptive keys, details of size, shape, color, habitat, there is a sign on each picture to quickly give you the idea of danger or edibility. Many different sorts and groups of mushrooms are included; cup fungi, puffballs, tree brackets, truffles and other underground forms. The common names of the different mushrooms are also included together with French and German and other important names, the Latin names are all included.
