In the case of fungi and mushrooms, many southern African species remain to be discovered. Join one of South Africa's leading citizen mycologists, Andrew Killian, in conversation with microbiologist Karin Jacobs and chemical engineer postgraduate student Breyten van der Merwe, himself a trained mycologist.
