Important to Note: Paul is not an expert, therefore identification is tentative - he has used his best efforts using field guides and Internet researches. This is particularly so with the fungi and plant identification where poisonous fungi and plants can easily be mistaken for harmless types - seek expert opinion. Paul Morris is not an expert in these matters - please notify him of any corrections you can make. No liability can be accepted for any of the information provided.
Note that these photographs have been optimised for the web so that the quality is not the same as that available from the originals.
