Fungi from Costa Rica and Panama (Classic Reprint)

by Frank Lincoln Stevens

Excerpt from Fungi From Costa Rica and Panama

The localities found to be especially interesting in Costa Rica are the primitive high forests near Cartago, and at La Palma, the Old pass above San Jos ; the rich jungle lying near the old railroad at Columbiana and other points, the jungle near Siquirres and the swamp jungles in the low lands near Limon and Swamp Mouth. The high rainforest on the mountain slopes to the south of the Old railroad from Siquirres to Guapiles and the jungles to the south of Siquirres hold a' vast amount of very interesting material.

In Panama all may be said to be interesting. Here, as nowhere else that I know of, primitive jungle lies on all hands, only a few minutes walk from an excellent railroad, or traversed by a fine automobile road, and one may sleep and dine at comfortable hotels and spend many hours daily in primitive jungle of great richness and diversity.
