Sporocarp Key

This key is designed to help you identify a sporocarp to the genus level using macroscopic characters. Choose the characters from the pull-down menu that match your sample. You do not have to select from all categories, but the more specific you are, the better your chances of narrowing the selection down to a specific genus. As you make your selections, matching genera will appear in the list below the reset button; click a genus name to go to the detail page for that genus.
