Norfolk Mycota

Species names

There have been many nomenclatural changes in recent years and the Mycota uses species names from the UK Species Inventory (UKSI) maintained by the Natural History Museum, London. The Mycota does not include synonyms, but if a species has been recorded under a different name to that on UKSI it will show without a hyperlink (in black) and the name under which it is recorded will be in blue.
