North Somerset and Bristol Fungus Group
August 2009: During a visit to Tatton Park, near Manchester we found magnificent examples of Pseudoboletus parasiticus growing round Scleroderma citrinum.

Information about our surveys of fungi at Tyntesfield, a National Trust Estate near Bristol, is also provided. Regular monthly audits have been conducted there since October 2005.
