climacodon pulcherrimus (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > toothed mushrooms > climacodon pulcherrimus climacodon pulcherrimus [ basidiomycetes > polyporales > meruliaceae > climacodon . . . ] by michael kuo though it is apparently not uncommon, this fascinating toothed mushroom is almost never treated

in field guides. from above, its hairy, shell-shaped cap is reminiscent of a polypore (perhaps a species of trametes)--but its underside features densely packed spines. originally described from south carolina, climacodon pulcherrimus has since been documented throughout much of eastern north america...

the genus cortinarius (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > dark-spored > cortinarius the genus cortinarius [ basidiomycetes > agaricales > cortinariaceae . . . ] by michael kuo cortinarius is the largest genus of mushrooms in the world, containing an astounding number of species (often

estimated well over a thousand). although the mushrooms in cortinarius are very diverse, it is usually pretty easy to figure out when you are looking at one, once you get the hang of it. first, they have cortinas covering their gills when young (hence the name of the genus); sometimes the tiny fibers...

agaricus pocillator (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > dark-spored > agaricus > agaricus pocillator agaricus pocillator [ basidiomycota > agaricales > agaricaceae > agaricus . . . ] by michael kuo "the cup at the base of the stem," wrote the mycologist who first named this species

(murrill ), "is quite remarkable and unexpected." like many species of agaricus , agaricus pocillator features a bulbous stem base—but in this case the bulb's upper side appears to be scooped out, so that the bulb appears like a little cup holding the stem (enlarge the second illustration and view the...

microglossum viride (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > clubs & corals > microglossum viride microglossum viride [ ascomycota > leotiales > leotiaceae > microglossum . . . ] by michael kuo most of the mushrooms on my mycological bucket list remain elusive. but microglossum viride showed up last summer

when least expected. my wife and i were perched precariously on a moss-covered hillside, taking photos of black trumpets and charismatic clumps of amanita flavoconia , when we noticed the little green clubs emerging from the moss. they were small enough and, in the moss, green-on-green enough, that...

growing on hardwood stumps, logs, and standing trees. it is easily recognized by its large size, its colors, the flattened scales on the cap, the black and velvety stem base (present on mature specimens), and its strongly mealy odor. although polyporus squamosus is annual (unlike some of the perennial

, woody-fleshed polypores), its fruiting bodies are quite durable and, given the right conditions, can last for many months. when this happens the mushrooms can look very different, and in fall specimens are sometimes encountered in which the scales have all-but vanished and the caps are essentially...

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....

agaricus bisporus (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > dark-spored > agaricus > agaricus bisporus agaricus bisporus [ basidiomycota > agaricales > agaricaceae > agaricus . . . ] by michael kuo this mushroom is widely distributed in north america . . . by trucks, most of which were loaded

up in southeastern pennsylvania. agaricus bisporus is so common that its common name is simply "mushroom." according to the usda, it is cultivated by mushroom farmers to the tune of roughly $ billion each year, during which the average american consumes more than pounds of mushrooms!...

agaricus leptocaulis (mushroomexpert.com) major groups > gilled mushrooms > dark-spored > agaricus > agaricus leptocaulis agaricus leptocaulis [ basidiomycota > agaricales > agaricaceae > agaricus . . . ] by michael kuo this woodland, eastern north american species of agaricus was given a name in by

agaricus expert rick kerrigan, who used the epithet leptocaulis to emphasize the thin stem of the species. it is similar to agaricus pocillator and agaricus placomyces —but the former species features a cup-like bulb at the base of the stem and the latter species has a thicker stem. like most species...

tylopilus . . . ] by michael kuo this eastern north american bolete features a dark brown, velvety cap that usually becomes cracked and mosaic-like with age. its pore surface is whitish to grayish when young, but becomes pinkish brown with maturity—and its surfaces and flesh stain blue when bruised. under the

microscope, it features an impressive palisadoderm on its cap surface, spores generally measuring – μm in length, and hymenial cystidia that are filled with brown, globular material. tylopilus sordidus is part of a group of bolete species with dark brown colors and pinkish to reddish brown spore prints...
