About the Book
"Indian Sarcoscyphaceous Fungi" offers an in-depth, illustrated study of the Sarcoscyphaceous fungi, a subgroup of fungi within the Discomycete group of the Phylum Ascomycota. The book provides detailed morphological descriptions and analysis of 78 specimens, primarily sourced from the Himalayan hills, foothills, and the plains around Varanasi (U.P.). Additionally, the authors have included 20 type/authentic collections from foreign herbaria for comparative purposes.
The study includes photographs and detailed notations of these specimens, which are crucial for taxonomic research. The inclusion of labels and comprehensive data about collection sites and the distribution of the genera adds significant value to the work. These fungi belong to two families under the suborder Sarcoscyphaceae of the order Pezizales.
This book is not just a compilation of specimens; it also serves as an important resource for taxonomy, particularly for researchers and academics interested in the study of fungal diversity in India. The work offers valuable insights into the classification and identification of Sarcoscyphaceous fungi and is a must-have for those involved in the study of fungi and mycology.
