A remarkable work in the of mycology, providing a visual and physical record of British fungi. Miles Joesph Berkeley (1803-1889), a Church of England clergyman and naturalist and to be later known as 'the father of British mycology'. He contributed the section on British fungi to Sir James Edward Smith's 'The English Flora' which was published in 5 volumes from 1824 to 1836. Here he presents the dried specimens which he had described in Smith's work.
