Tremellales, about 125 species of Ascomycotina, 60 species of
Gastromycetes, 55 of coprophilous fungi and 67 of Myxomycetes.
A collection from Denmark and Canada was brought to Israel by N. Binyamini
for comparison with the local material. The collection serves for research,
lectures and student laboratories.
