Founded
in 1985 by Dr. Bryce Kendrick, Mycologue Publications was originally
established to publish his mycology textbook, The Fifth Kingdom.
He strived to produce a high quality and approachable mycological book
at an affordable price. With much of the competition charging
well over $100.00 for class textbooks, we think he has succeeded.
Mycologue now offers
a number ofother mycological products.
Mycologue
Publications is based in Sidney, Vancouver Island,
British Columbia, Canada.
Bryce has an extensive collection of mycological images which
he uses in lectures around the world to illustrate many of the
topics presented in the text of The Fifth Kingdom. He has
spent thousand of hours compiling these images, as well as finding
new and improved images, and has created a multimedia version
of his book:The Fifth Kingdom CD-ROM. Here, he combined
his lively text with thousands of images to create an incredible
one-of-a-kind mycological resource.
Currently, Bryce is working on a Teacher's Edition - a
multimedia slideshow, which will illustrate many of the chapters
of The Fifth Kingdom. An excerpt from the Teacher's
Edition, the Lichen slideshow, is found on version
5.2 of the CD-ROM (2008).

and the public on the importance of preserving our biodiversity.
