These records document fungi as food for birds ranging from Cassowaries to Siberian Jays; in some cases, fungi may comprise a seasonally significant portion of birds' diets (Andreev 1978; Alsheikh & Trappe 1983; Simpson 1998; Medway 2000; Doerr & Doerr 2002; Beever & Lebel 2014). | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Australian Zoologist, 38(1), p. 59-61 | Publisher: | Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 2204-2105 0067-2238 |
