MycoKey enables the user to identify fungal genera (fruitbody forming Basidiomycota and discomycetes) by means of a digital, synoptical key. This key offers a very different way of choosing between genera than the traditional analytical key and the the two approaches complete each other nicely. It is, of course, also possible to do a direct search on a name in MycoKey in order to find a genus or a particular species. MycoKey gives access to more than 4,000 illustrations of fungi and more than 17,000 links to references. From within the genera you can also open the Funga Nordica keys in a a pdf-viwer so an on-screen identification can be made.
