Entoloma
''Entoloma'' is a large genus of terrestrial pink-gilled mushrooms, with about 1,000 species. Most have a drab appearance, pink gills which are attached to the stem, a smooth thick cap, and angular spores. Many entolomas are saprobic but some are mycorrhizal. The best-known member of the genus is the livid agaric ('' Entoloma sinuatum''), responsible for a number of poisonings over the years in Europe and North America, and ''Entoloma rhodopolium'' in Japan. Some southern hemisphere species such as '' Entoloma rodwayi'' and ''Entoloma viridomarginatum'' from Australia, and ''Entoloma hochstetteri'' from New Zealand, are very colourful, with caps of unusual shades of green and blue-green. Most entolomas are dull shades of olive, brown, or grey. Etymology The part '' ἐντός'' means "within, inside". The part "loma" is a noun-forming element derived from Greek '' λῶμ(α)'', "fringe, hem" and used in the botanical taxonomy for naming plants distinguished by having a ...

Entoloma Sinuatum
''Entoloma sinuatum'' ( commonly known as the livid entoloma, livid agaric, livid pinkgill, leaden entoloma, and lead poisoner) is a poisonous mushroom found across Europe and North America. Some guidebooks refer to it by its older scientific names of ''Entoloma lividum'' or ''Rhodophyllus sinuatus''. The largest mushroom of the genus of pink-spored fungi known as '' Entoloma'', it is also the type species. Appearing in late summer and autumn, fruit bodies are found in deciduous woodlands on clay or chalky soils, or nearby parklands, sometimes in the form of fairy rings. Solid in shape, they resemble members of the genus ''Tricholoma''. The ivory to light grey-brown cap is up to across with a margin that is rolled inward. The sinuate gills are pale and often yellowish, becoming pink as the spores develop. The thick whitish stem has no ring. When young, it may be mistaken for the edible St George's mushroom (''Calocybe gambosa'') or the miller ('' Clitopilus prunulus''). It h ...

Entoloma Hochstetteri
''Entoloma hochstetteri'', also known as the blue pinkgill, sky-blue mushroom or similar names, is a species of mushroom that is native to New Zealand. The small mushroom is a distinctive all-blue colour, while the gills have a slight reddish tint from the spores. The blue colouring of the fruit body is due to azulene pigments. Whether ''Entoloma hochstetteri'' is poisonous or not is unknown. The Māori name for the mushroom is werewere-kōkako, because its colour is similar to the blue wattle of the kōkako bird. This species was one of six native fungi featured in a set of fungal stamps issued in New Zealand in 2002. It is also featured on the New Zealand fifty-dollar note. With ''E. hochstetteris inclusion, this makes it the only banknote in the world which features a mushroom on it. In a 2018 poll, ''E. hochstetteri'' was ranked first by Manaaki Whenua – Landcare Research for its pick as New Zealand's national fungus. Taxonomy The species was first described as ''Cor ...

Entoloma Austroprunicolor
''Entoloma austroprunicolor'' is a species of agaric fungus in the family Entolomataceae. Described as new to science in 2007, it is found in Tasmania, where it fruits on the ground of wet sclerophyll forests in late spring to early winter (usually between January and March). The fruit bodies (mushrooms) have reddish-purple caps measuring up to in diameter supported by whitish stipes measuring long by thick. On the cap underside, the crowded gills are initially white before turning pink as the spores mature. Taxonomy The species was first formally described in 2007 by Australian mycologist Genevieve Gates and Dutch mycologist Machiel Noordeloos, from collections made in Tasmania, Australia. The specific epithet ''austroprunicolor '' is derived from the Latin prefix ''austro-'', meaning "southern", and the Latin word ''prunicolor'', meaning "plum-coloured". The type collection was made in January 2002 at Kermandie Falls, near Geeveston in southern Tasmania. The species was di ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Entoloma Rodwayi
''Entoloma rodwayi'', known as the green stem pinkgill, is a species of fungus in the Entolomataceae family of mushrooms. A yellowish green mushroom with pink gills and spores, it is found in wet forests of Tasmania. Taxonomy First named as ''Leptonia rodwayi'' by British mycologist George Edward Massee in 1898, it was transferred to the genus '' Entoloma'' in a 1980 publication by German mycologist Egon Horak. It was named after Tasmanian botanist Leonard Rodway. The genus ''Entoloma'' is well represented in Australia, particularly Tasmania, and ''E. rodwayi'' is one of many unusually coloured members, others being shades of blue and purple as well as green. Description The cap is up to 3 cm (1.2 in) in diameter, and is conical or convex, before flattening out as the mushroom ages. The centre is sometimes depressed. When dried, the mushroom transforms from yellow-green to a vivid blue-green. It can be confused with some other green mushrooms such as the larger and m ...

Entoloma Rhodopolium
''Entoloma rhodopolium'', commonly known as the wood pinkgill, is a poisonous mushroom found in Europe and Asia. In fact, it is one of the three most commonly implicated fungi in cases of mushroom poisoning in Japan (Other two are ''Omphalotus japonicus'' and ''Tricholoma ustale''). ''E. rhodopolium'' is often mistaken for edible mushroom, '' E. sarcopum''. Symptoms are predominantly gastrointestinal in nature, though muscarine, muscaridine, and choline Choline is an essential nutrient for humans and many other animals. Choline occurs as a cation that forms various salts (X− in the depicted formula is an undefined counteranion). Humans are capable of some ''de novo synthesis'' of choline but ... have been isolated as toxic agents. The taxonomy of this species is currently unclear, with several different forms identified in North America, and questions over whether the European and North American fungi are even the same species.

Lucien Quélet
Lucien Quélet in 1869 Lucien Quélet (14 July 1832 – 25 August 1899) was a French naturalist and mycologist. Quélet discovered several species of fungi and was the founder of the Société mycologique de France, a society devoted to mycological studies. Quélet, having been born in Montécheroux, Doubs, to a farmer, was soon orphaned, and spent his childhood with and was raised by his aunts. In his youth, he is known to have shown a great interest in mycology and botany in general, but also other subject areas such as ornithology and malacology, the study of mollusks. He was schooled at the Montbéliard college, and later studied medicine in Strasbourg. In 1884, he founded the mycological society known as the Société mycologique de France, of which he became the first president. Several years after this, in 1888, Quélet wrote a book, ''Flore mycologique de la France et des pays limitrophes'' (''Mycological flora of France and neighbouring countries''). Quélet al ...

Jean Baptiste François Pierre Bulliard
Jean Baptiste François Pierre Bulliard (also Pierre Bulliard; 24 November 1752, in Aubepierre-sur-Aube Haute-Marne – 26 September 1793, in Paris) was a French physician and botanist. Bulliard studied in Langres, where he became interested in natural history, and afterwards a position was obtained for him in the abbey in Clairvaux and later he moved to Paris where he study medicine. There he also practiced as a physician. He tutored the son of General Claude Dupin (1686-1769). He was an able draughtsman and also learnt to engrave. He invented a way of printing natural history plates in colour and used the method in his own publications. In 1779 he commenced a work on the poisonous plants of France. It was seized by the police on the grounds that it was a dangerous work. Bulliard's ''Dictionnaire Elémentaire de Botanique'' (1783) contributed to the spreading and consolidation of botanical terminology and the Linné system. It was especially important in the area of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tricholoma
''Tricholoma'' is a genus of fungus that contains many fairly fleshy white-spored gilled mushrooms which are found worldwide generally growing in woodlands. These are ectomycorrhizal fungi, existing in a symbiotic relationship with various species of coniferous or broad-leaved trees. The generic name derives from grc, τριχο-, tricho-, hair and grc, λῶμα, loma, fringe, border although only a few species (such as '' T. vaccinum'') have shaggy caps which fit this description. The most sought out species are the East Asian '' Tricholoma matsutake'', also known as ''matsutake'' or ''songi'', and the North American '' Tricholoma magnivelare'' species complex, also known as "ponderosa mushroom", "American matsutake", or " pine mushroom". Others are safe to eat, such as ''Tricholoma terreum'', but there are a few poisonous members, such as '' T. pardinum'', '' T. tigrinum'' and '' T. equestre''. Many species originally described within Tricholoma have since been moved to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Agaricus
''Agaricus'' is a genus of mushrooms containing both edible and poisonous species, with over 400 members worldwide and possibly again as many disputed or newly-discovered species. The genus includes the common ("button") mushroom ('' Agaricus bisporus'') and the field mushroom ('' A. campestris''), the dominant cultivated mushrooms of the West. Members of ''Agaricus'' are characterized by having a fleshy cap or pileus, from the underside of which grow a number of radiating plates or gills, on which are produced the naked spores. They are distinguished from other members of their family, Agaricaceae, by their chocolate-brown spores. Members of ''Agaricus'' also have a stem or stipe, which elevates it above the object on which the mushroom grows, or substrate, and a partial veil, which protects the developing gills and later forms a ring or annulus on the stalk. The genus contains the most widely consumed and best-known mushroom today, '' A. bisporus'', with '' A. arvensis'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
