Secretive Slime Moulds is the first guide to the Myxomycetes of Australia that includes keys at all levels from class to species. It is clearly laid out and provides descriptions of more than 330 species. Introductory sections contain useful background information on life cycles, structure, distribution and ecology as well as on collecting and studying myxomycetes. As such, it is a welcome addition for the mxyomycetologist and the naturalist. -- Tom May * Australasian Systematic Botany Society Newsletter *
