This book is a photographic tribute to the beautiful but little-known world of New Zealand fungi. It is the work of Paula Vigus, who was the photographer for the spectacularly successful 'Fungi of Aotearoa: A curious forager's field guide', published in 2023. In 'A Hidden World' she showcases the extraordinary beauty of these remarkable organisms, which play a crucial role in our ecosystems, acting as decomposers and contributing to nutrient cycling, soil health and plant growth. But because so many fungi are tiny and not easily found, most New Zealanders have no idea how remarkable this hidden world is. This book changes this, providing a spectacular glimpse into the unique forms, details and textures of the fungi world. Paula Vigus has photographed a significant range of the fungi species found in New Zealand, and quite apart from highlighting their aesthetic appeal, she also hopes to inspire a greater appreciation and awareness of their ecological significance. 'A Hidden World' is a wonderful addition to books about our natural history - a must for anyone who loves to get out into our native forest.
