polyporales: the polypores (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > polypores polyporales: the polypores [ basidiomycetes . . . ] by michael kuo the polyporales form a large group of diverse mushrooms. most of these are "polypores" in the widely used sense of the word: they are wood decomposers whose spores

are held in tubes--rather like the tubes of the boletes , except that with some exceptions the tube layer of a polypore cannot be easily removed as a layer, the way it can with a bolete. aside from the fact that many of them are attractive and interesting mushrooms, polypores are of special interest...

lactarius (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > pale-spored > > lactarius the genus lactarius [ agaricomycetes > russulales > russulaceae . . . ] by michael kuo lactarius is a large genus of mycorrhizal mushrooms that exude a "latex," or milk, when injured. in some species the milk is

copious, and it almost seems to pour out of the mushroom when you slice it or damage the gills. in other species the milk can be scanty to almost nonexistent--especially in older specimens that have grown in dry weather. a few mushrooms in other genera exude a juice (for example, mycena haematopus )...

semiovatus is one of the larger species of panaeolus , and it grows on horse dung. its whitish to buffy tan cap is slimy when fresh, and it is the only panaeolus species that features a ring (albeit a flimsy one) on the stem. panaeolus separatus is a synonym. some mycologists place panaeolus semiovatus...

helvella crispa (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > saddles > helvella crispa helvella crispa [ ascomycetes > pezizales > helvellaceae > helvella . . . ] by michael kuo this astonishing mushroom is easily distinguished by its creamy white colors and its ornately fluted stem; it looks like something on the

set of the lord of the rings. the undersurface of the cap is densely fuzzy, separating helvella crispa from helvella lactea, which is also whitish but features a smooth undersurface. casual research does not uncover the origin of the sometimes-applied common name "elfin saddles" for species of helvella...

mushrooms , ampulloclitocybe clavipes is distinguished by its brownish cap, its white spore print, its frequently bulbous stem, its (usual) preference for conifers, and microscopic features (including its smooth spores and the presence of clamp connections)--which means that the species is not very...

inocybe rimosa (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > dark-spored > inocybe > inocybe rimosa inocybe rimosa [ basidiomycetes > agaricales > cortinariaceae > inocybe . . . ] by michael kuo if there is a mushroom that epitomizes the genus inocybe --and why it is that the mushrooms in this

genus are so unpopular among amateur (and professional) mushroom folks--it is inocybe rimosa, also known as inocybe fastigiata. it looks like literally dozens of other inocybes--and even under the microscope it is confusingly indistinguishable. so there really is no point in listing the distinguishing...

many, many leccinum collections from across the continent is the key to an eventual mycological understanding of the genus; see kuo, ("mushrooming in the age of dna: now comes the fun part") for further discussion and suggestions. my treatment of leccinum (which is far from complete) is more "mycological

it was, in part, my frustration with the inadequacies in existing north american mycological treatments of the genus that led me to this project, and we will never reach a point where the field-guide descriptions correspond to scientific reality without a revision of the genus on mycological terms....

the genus xylaria (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > clubs & corals > xylaria the genus xylaria [ ascomycota > sordariomycetes > xylariales > xylariaceae . . . ] by michael kuo the genus xylaria consists of funky, club-like decomposers of wood or plant debris that become black and hard by maturity,

reminiscent of carbon or charcoal. the mushrooms are "pyrenomycetes," which means they produce spores in asci that are embedded in tiny pockets called "perithecia"; the asci take turns growing into the narrow opening of the pocket so that they can shoot spores away from the fungus and into the air currents...

north america but appears to be most common on the west coast and in the southern appalachians, based on online records from our continent's major herbaria. small, sparingly branched versions of tremellodendron schweinitzii (aka tremellodendron pallidum) and other, less well-known species of tremellodendron

day it was discovered. at issue is its placement relative to other groups of fungi. it has funky, interesting basidia (the prong-like structures on which spores are borne) that seem to be a combination of two well-established types. jelly fungi develop divided basidia, while other mushrooms that bear...
