About

Mycotheca is a reference encyclopedia of the kingdom Fungi: it gathers the classification, form, habitat, distribution and curiosities of very different species, with original texts.

The plates are low-poly cartoon 3D models generated by code: they illustrate a species but do not reproduce the features needed to identify it.

This site contains no recipes, foraging guides, or instructions for cultivation, preparation or dosage.
