Gomphus (fungus)
''Gomphus'' is a genus of Basidiocarp#Types, cantharelloid fungi in the family Gomphaceae. Once presumed to be related to chanterelles, molecular study has shown them to be allied with Phallaceae, stinkhorns and Clavariadelphus, fairy clubs. The type species of the genus is the pig's ear (''Gomphus clavatus, G. clavatus''). Christiaan Hendrik Persoon named the genus in 1797, but did not assign any species to it at the time. The generic name is derived from the Ancient Greek, Greek 'γομφος' ''gomphos'' meaning 'plug' or 'large wedge-shaped nail'. Species , Index Fungorum accepts 12 species of ''Gomphus'': There are several undescribed species in the forests of Myrtle beech (''Nothofagus cunninghamii'') in Tasmania.Fuhrer B (2005) A Field Guide to Australian Fungi. Bloomings Books. Bruce A. Fuhrer, Bruce Fuhrer noticed in 1992 that the large and ornamented spores of these species resembled those of the genera ''Ramaria'' and ''Beenakia''. References Gomph ...

Gomphus Clavatus
''Gomphus clavatus'', common name, commonly known as pig's ears or the violet chanterelle, is an edible mushroom, edible species of fungus in the genus ''Gomphus (fungus), Gomphus''. Species description, Described by Jacob Christian Schäffer in 1774, ''G. clavatus'' has had several name changes and many alternative scientific names, having been classified in the genus Cantharellus (also called chanterelles), though it is not closely related to them. The basidiocarp, fruit body is vase- or fan-shaped with wavy edges to its rim, and grows up to wide and tall. The upper surface or pileus (mycology), cap is orangish-brown to Lilac (color), lilac, while the lower basidiospore, spore-bearing surface, the hymenium, is covered in wrinkles and ridges rather than lamella (mycology), gills or pores, and is a distinctive purple color. Typically found in Temperate coniferous forest, coniferous forests in Eurasia and North America, ''G. clavatus'' is mycorrhizal and associated wi ...

Ramaria
The genus ''Ramaria'' comprises approximately 200 species of coral fungi. Several, such as '' Ramaria flava'', are edible and picked in Europe, though they are easily confused with several mildly poisonous species capable of causing nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea; these include '' R. formosa'' and '' R. pallida''. Three ''Ramaria'' species have been demonstrated to contain a very unusual organoarsenic compound homoarsenocholine. Etymology The genus name is derived from Latin ''rāmus'' meaning ''branch''. Description Basidiocarps may range in color from bright yellow, red, pink, or orange, to purple, white, and shades of tan. Color changes after bruising occur in some species. The spores of ''Ramaria'' species are yellow-brown to rusty-brown in mass deposit and range from smooth to warted to echinulate or striate. Spore size may vary considerably, and ornamentation, when present, is cyanophilous. Classification Hjomsköld was the first to introduce the name ''Ramaria'' in 1 ...

Bruce A
The English language name Bruce arrived in Scotland with the Normans, from the place name Brix, Manche in Normandy, France, meaning "the willowlands". Initially promulgated via the descendants of king Robert the Bruce (1274−1329), it has been a Scottish surname since medieval times; it is now a common male given name. The variant ''Lebrix'' and ''Le Brix'' are French variations of the surname. Note: A few people are notable in more than one field, and therefore appear in more than one section.
