Leptonia Bispora
''Leptonia'' has been defined as a genus of small and medium sized pink-spored mushrooms that contains over 100 species. They are saprotrophic and most grow on the ground, but some are found on wood. The cap is thin and can be convex, plane, often depressed and usually has small scales. The gills are widely spaced, usually having adnexed to adnate attachment (rarely they can be a little decurrent) and the stalk is fragile. The spores are angular and are flesh colored to pink. Some ''Leptonia'' species have distinctive colors such as black, blue, green, yellow, and violet, but even these are difficult to identify. Most modern taxonomic authorities do not recognize ''Leptonia'' as a genus in its own right, but only as a subgenus of ''Entoloma''. Although little is known about the edibility of mushrooms of this group, some are known to be poisonous. Data produced by the molecular study by Moncalvo in 2002, has species of ''Nolanea'', ''Leptonia'' and '' Inocephalus'' int ...

Fungi
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Basidiospore
A basidiospore is a reproductive spore produced by Basidiomycete fungi, a grouping that includes mushrooms, shelf fungi, rusts, and smuts. Basidiospores typically each contain one haploid nucleus that is the product of meiosis, and they are produced by specialized fungal cells called basidia. Typically, four basidiospores develop on appendages from each basidium, of which two are of one strain and the other two of its opposite strain. In gills under a cap of one common species, there exist millions of basidia. Some gilled mushrooms in the order Agaricales have the ability to release billions of spores. The puffball fungus ''Calvatia gigantea'' has been calculated to produce about five trillion basidiospores. Most basidiospores are forcibly discharged, and are thus considered ballistospores. These spores serve as the main air dispersal units for the fungi. The spores are released during periods of high humidity and generally have a night-time or pre-dawn peak concentration in the ...

Leptonia Quinquecolor
''Leptonia'' has been defined as a genus of small and medium sized pink-spored mushrooms that contains over 100 species. They are saprotrophic and most grow on the ground, but some are found on wood. The cap is thin and can be convex, plane, often depressed and usually has small scales. The gills are widely spaced, usually having adnexed to adnate attachment (rarely they can be a little decurrent) and the stalk is fragile. The spores are angular and are flesh colored to pink. Some ''Leptonia'' species have distinctive colors such as black, blue, green, yellow, and violet, but even these are difficult to identify. Most modern taxonomic authorities do not recognize ''Leptonia'' as a genus in its own right, but only as a subgenus of ''Entoloma''. Although little is known about the edibility of mushrooms of this group, some are known to be poisonous. Data produced by the molecular study by Moncalvo in 2002, has species of ''Nolanea'', ''Leptonia'' and '' Inocephalus'' int ...

List Of Entolomataceae Genera
The mushroom genera in the family Entolomataceae collectively contain over 1500 species, the large majority of which are in ''Entoloma''. There have been many different classifications of this group, and so the table below includes not only genera which are supposedly current, but also other proposed genera whose names have been important. For instance several taxa such as ''Leptonia'' and ''Nolanea'' were defined as independent genera, and are still sometimes used as such, but in recent classifications they have been demoted to being subgenera of ''Entoloma''. Previously there was a view that Entolomataceae with angular (polyhedral) spores should be classified in genus ''Entoloma'', those with bumpy spores should be in ''Rhodocybe'', and those with longitudinally ridged spores should be put in ''Clitopilus''. However DNA studies in 2009 and 2017 have changed this situation for the ''Rhodocybe''/''Clitopilus'' group. Firstly ''Clitopilus'' was found to be a clade embedded within ...
