Talk:Strophariaceae

Removed "There are around 160 species, concentrated in Europe." as these are not accurate statements. There are far more than 160 species between all of the genera in the Strophariaceae. They are cosmopolitan in their distribution and Europe, while having many species, is not particularly a center of diversity for this group. Peter Werner - June 20, 2005
