   Yep, that entire set is my "secret" New Year's gift to myself for   
   being a good boy. I deserve it, don't I? At least I can send checks to   
   Santa Claus... Considering that I used to collect things that I paid   
   for (firearms, coins & stuff), mushrooms are cheap. And healthier to   
   go after... Volume VI that just came out -- it's all about Russula.

   I have this one, recently obtained (in English).  Just noticed that he has   
   H. arbustivus is described under H. poetarum. (as a smaller specie).   
   This book has a lot of weird names though -- still calls the Agaricus,   
   a Psaliota. Like the best Bulgarian book on mushrooms from 1956   
   (even there the author mentions that the new name is Agaricus).
