Sarcodon
''Sarcodon'' is a genus of fungi in the family Bankeraceae, which is part of the order Thelephorales The Thelephorales are an order of fungi in the class Agaricomycetes. The order includes corticioid and hydnoid fungi, together with a few polypores and clavarioid species. Most fungi within the Thelephorales are ectomycorrhizal. None is of any ... known for its almost universal ectomycorrhizal life style. The genus owes its name to the presence of teeth-like spines on the hymenophore, it is derived from ancient Greek; ''sarco'' = flesh and ''odon'' = tooth. This is why they are commonly called "tooth fungi", or "Hydnoid fungi". Several species of the ''Sarcodon'' genus, including ''Sarcodon imbricatus'' (see figure), are edible. The fungus can be bitter, but that is less apparent in younger specimens. In China, it is a popular edible mushroom and it is used for lowering of cholesterol level, muscles relaxation and blood circulation. Isolates from the genus, called Scabroni ...

Sarcodon Imbricatus
''Sarcodon imbricatus'', commonly known as the shingled hedgehog or scaly hedgehog, is a species of tooth fungus in the order Thelephorales. The mushroom is edible. Many sources report it has a bitter taste, but others have found it delicious and suspect that the bitter specimens may be similar related species. The mushroom has a large, brownish cap with large brown scales and may reach 30 cm (12 in) in diameter. On the underside it sports greyish, brittle teeth instead of gills, and has white flesh. Its spore print is brown. It is associated with spruce ('' Picea''), appearing in autumn. It ranges throughout North America and Europe, although collections from the British Isles are now assigned to the similar species '' Sarcodon squamosus''. Taxonomy The Swedish botanist Olof Celsius reported in 1732 that ''Sarcodon imbricatus'' occurred in the vicinity of Uppsala, and Carl Linnaeus wrote of it in his 1737 work ''Flora lapponica''. It was one of the species initially ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hydnellum
''Hydnellum'' is a genus of tooth fungi in the family Bankeraceae (order Thelephorales). Widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, the genus contains around 40 species. The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping nearby bits of grass and vegetation. There is great variability in the form of ''Hydnellum'' fruitbodies, which are greatly influenced by environmental conditions such as rainfall and humidity, drying winds, and temperature. They are too tough and woody to eat comfortably. Several species have become the focus of increasing conservation concern following widespread declines in abundance. ''Hydnellum'' species produce pigments that have been used to dye textiles. Several chemical compounds—some with unique biological activity—have been isolated and identified from the genus. One of the better-known species is the unusual pinkish-white ''Hydnellum peckii'', also known as "strawberries and cream" or as the "bleeding tooth fungus" due to the red d ...

Howard James Banker transferred it to ''Sarcodon'' in 1906. The fungus is known from Asia and North America; in 2015 it was reported from Brazil. The specific epithet In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called nomenclature ("two-name naming system") or binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, bot ... ''atroviridis'' means "blackish green". While not explicitly known to be poisonous, it is considered of poor edibility.

''Sarcodon cyanellus'' is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America, where it associates with Pinaceae, it was described as new to science in 1964 by mycologist Kenneth A. Harrison, who initially called it ''Hydnum cyanellum''. He transferred it to the genus ''Sarcodon'' in 1984. It has a vinaceous-violet to bluish-black cap A cap is a flat headgear, usually with a visor. Caps have crowns that fit very close to the head. They made their first appearance as early as 3200 BC.

Sarcodon Excentricus
''Sarcodon excentricus'' is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. The fungus was originally described in 1951 by William Chambers Coker and Alma Holland Beers.

Coker and Beers did not include a description of the fungus written in Latin—a requirement of the nomenclatural code Nomenclature codes or codes of nomenclature are the various rulebooks that govern biological taxonomic nomenclature, each in their own broad field of organisms.

Thelephorales
The Thelephorales are an order (biology), order of fungi in the class (biology), class Agaricomycetes. The order includes corticioid fungi, corticioid and hydnoid fungi, together with a few polypores and clavarioid fungi, clavarioid species. Most fungi within the Thelephorales are ectomycorrhizal. None is of any great economic importance, though ''Sarcodon imbricatus'' is edible and commercially marketed, whilst several species have been used for craft dyeing. Taxonomy History Though "the Thelephorales" were referred to in passing by E.J.H. Corner in 1968, the order was not formally published till 1976 when German mycologist Franz Oberwinkler first described it as encompassing the family (biology), families Thelephoraceae and Bankeraceae. As originally conceived, species within the order had diverse basidiocarp (fruit body) forms, but shared several features in common, notably similarities in basidiospore shape (most having spiny to warted, often lobed spores) and similarities in ...
