Mushrooms

Royal Mail issued 10 stamps that showcase the extraordinary diversity and ecological importance of mushrooms that can be found across the United Kingdom. Royal Mail worked with mycologist Geoffrey Kibby, one of Britain’s foremost experts on identifying mushrooms in the field. Kibby has written numerous books, which he also illustrates. He also produces field guides on the larger fungi of both Europe and North America.
