Russulales Genera
The Russulales are an order (biology), order of the Agaricomycetes, (which include the agaric genera ''Russula'' and ''Lactarius (fungus), Lactarius'' and their polypore, polyporoid and corticioid relatives). According to the ''Dictionary of the Fungi'' (10th edition, 2008), the order consists of 12 family (biology), families, 80 genera, and 1767 species. According to ''Species Fungorum'' (January 2016), the order contains 13 families, 117 genera (16 not assigned to a family), and 3,060 species. Russuloid agarics represent an independent evolutionary line of agarics, not directly related to the Agaricales. This group also includes a number of russuloid hypogeous fungi, polypores such as ''Bondarzewia'', some Tooth fungus, tooth fungi (e.g. ''Auriscalpium vulgare''), and club fungi e.g. ''Artomyces''. spores, Basidiospores in this group are typically ornamented with amyloid warts or wiktionary: reticulate, reticulation but a few exceptions are known, e.g. ''Heterobasidion annosum' ...

Russula Emetica
''Russula emetica'', commonly known as the sickener, emetic russula, or vomiting russula, is a basidiomycete mushroom, and the type species of the genus ''Russula''. It was first described in 1774. It has a red, convex to flat pileus (mycology), cap up to in diameter, with a cap cuticle, cuticle that can be peeled off almost to the centre. The lamella (mycology), gills are white to pale cream, and closely spaced. A smooth white stipe (mycology), stem measures up to long and thick. There are many similar russulas with a red cap and white stem and gills, some of which can be reliably distinguished only by microscopy. The mushroom has a wide distribution in the Northern Hemisphere, where it grows on the ground in damp woodlands in a mycorrhizal association with conifers, especially pine. The mushroom's common names refer to the gastrointestinal distress which it causes when consumed raw. The trama (mycology), flesh is extremely peppery, but this offensive taste, along with its ...
