In this cross-national study, we explore the different ways of reasoning-and-proving (RP) presented in three 8th grade textbooks, one from each country: Turkey, Norway, and Slovakia. While the analysis revealed that all three textbooks contain similar numbers of problems involving some form of RP, differences exist in terms of the dominating ways of reasoning. In particular, while empirical reasoning dominates in the Turkish textbook, deductive reasoning is the dominant way of reasoning in the Slovak and Norwegian textbooks, with the Norwegian textbook having a significantly larger proportion of one-step deductions than its Slovak counterpart. This study is limited to only three countries, with only one textbook selected in each country. We discuss the findings and implications of our findings for textbook developers and teachers. Recommendations for further research, considering the limitations of the study, are also given.

Hygrophorus citrinofuscus is a striking and rarely reported grassland species originally described by J. Favre from the Swiss Alps. In absence of sequence data for the type specimen, a recent collection from Austria, which is well documented based on morphology and sequence data, is designated as the epitype of H. citrinofuscus to stabilise the species concept. Further collections from Austria and the Czech Republic are given. Morphologically similar species are discussed.Hygrophorus citrinofuscus is morphologically and phylogenetically well delimited and macroscopically characterised by yellow-brown pileus colours, a fibrillose pileus surface, pale lamellae and a yellow stipe, making it readily recognisable in the field. Morphology of the lamellar trama as well as phylogenetic analyses of a combined matrix of ITS, LSU, SSU and RPB2 sequence data clearly place this species in the genus Neohygrocybe, and a transfer is proposed.
