Variation of basidiospores in the Hymenomycetes and its significance to their taxonomy. With an appendix by T.Moels. 1987. (Bibl.Mycologica, Bd. 115). 1 fig. 36 tabs. 167 p. gr8vo. Paper bd.

From the introduction: ... the main task of this paper follows: to givea general picture of what we know at the present on the variation ofspores in the Hymenomycetes with the aim of enabling a critical andreasoned use of these data in the taxonomy of these fungi. We confinedourselves only to the application of elementary statistics and suchstatistical techniques which are feasible for every biologist lackingspecial knowledge of biometry. - Contents (partly): Symbols andAbbreviations/ Introduction/ Acknowledgements/ Variation ofBasidiospores/ Results and Discussion/ Biological Meaning of the Resultsand their Applicability in Taxonomy/ Variation of Spores in the Non-Hymenomycetous Fungi/ Conclusion/ Literature.
