I just received my copy of Bushcraft And Survival Skills magazine through the post and was very concerned to see that in the article I wrote on page 11 my photo of Arum maculatum berries has been mislabled as rosehip. This is a serious error. Unfortunately, although I send pictures in with correct ID, after that I can do nothing if it's wrongly labled in the edit . Of course, most people will know this is clearly not a rose hip. Be warned, the berries of A. maculatum contain high levels of oxalic acid crystals that can seriously irritate the mucous membranes leading to servere allergic reaction, they lso contain other toxic chemicals.
Be safe!
