It is a very specialized book that covers in great detail inventory making procedures for biodiversity which includes all fungi taxonomical groups existing in a protected area of Costa Rica.

Even though the method selection foundations are not present, the names of the people who helped in the elaboration of methodology design are (all of them are specialists in different areas of fungi study), as well as their addresses, making it possible for the reader to contact them if he or she needs to know more about their work.

The book shows the inventory procedure job under a very interesting point of view. Not only does it limit to field technical aspects, but also considers management aspects, such as execution problems and function manuals of the researchers. It also includes a budget design and an integrated view of the whole study.

This book is doubtlessly very useful and maybe unique because there are very few publications related to fungi monitoring methods in tropical zones until now.
