UK fungus ID groups/materials?

I'm looking for a UK-oriented fungus identification online group or guide or website or book or Android app. Recommendations based on personal experience are most welcome. Poking around online has led me to a few places, like Mycokey, but either the varieties aren't listed or I'm just rubbish at describing what I've found.

I know about things like spore prints and can tell a Daldinia from a Xylaria & a Puffball from a Devil's Fingers without any problem. When it comes to figuring out what variety the Chanterelle with the 25 centimetre cap is, I get a little stuck. Something like a Flickr group would be ideal, but a well-presented book or app would also be very useful.

Best answer: The British Mycological Society is what you are looking for. Facebook.

There are several other facebook groups that could also assist with IDs if you post photos.
