FungiOz scroll down screen showing categories within gilled mushrooms

2a. Fungi identification via the Search Bar

At the top of each collection and category page of FungiOz app you will see a search bar.

Here you can enter a single keyword that describes a feature of the mushroom you want to identify.

Various keywords will produce a result but just type one per search or you will get a "not found" result.

Red for example, will display all the mushroom species that are red in some way. Usually, it will be a red cap. The red could also refer to gills, stem, or even the colour of bruising on the gills of the mushroom. .

Typing "Red cap" will produce "no result".

Mushroom species names also act as keywords. So typing Russula for example will display all the Russulas.

If the search produces a mushroom with no red it will be because the letters red are part of a word in a species' name.

The various search terms you could have entered for a species are listed after the species name. They are all common words and readily noticeable features
