Leucocoprinus Magnicystidiosus
''Leucocoprinus magnicystidiosus'' is a species of mushroom-producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. Taxonomy It was first described in 1982 by the mycologists Helen Vandervort Smith and Nancy S. Weber who classified it as ''Leucocoprinus magnicystidiosus.'' The specimens studied and documented were collected by Ervin Hillhouse in 1971. Description ''Leucocoprinus magnicystidiosus'' is a dapperling mushroom with extremely fragile white flesh. Cap: 4–8cm wide when mature. Up to 1.3cm wide and 3.2cm high when young. Starts bulbous and expands to conical or campanulate (bell shaped) before flattening or becoming concave with the cap edges lifting upwards. The surface is bright lemon yellow with a brown centre when young. The cap edges have striate or plicate striations which extend nearly to the centre, the striations remain bright yellow whilst the grooves between them are white. The cap is very fragile at all stages of growth and easily sticks to the fingers and tears ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Mushroom
A mushroom or toadstool is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground, on soil, or on its food source. ''Toadstool'' generally denotes one poisonous to humans. The standard for the name "mushroom" is the cultivated white button mushroom, ''Agaricus bisporus''; hence the word "mushroom" is most often applied to those fungi ( Basidiomycota, Agaricomycetes) that have a stem ( stipe), a cap ( pileus), and gills (lamellae, sing. lamella) on the underside of the cap. "Mushroom" also describes a variety of other gilled fungi, with or without stems, therefore the term is used to describe the fleshy fruiting bodies of some Ascomycota. These gills produce microscopic spores that help the fungus spread across the ground or its occupant surface. Forms deviating from the standard morphology usually have more specific names, such as "bolete", "puffball", "stinkhorn", and " morel", and gilled mushrooms themselves are often called "agarics" in refere ...

Fungus
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'' (''true f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Agaricaceae
The Agaricaceae are a family of basidiomycete fungi and include the genus ''Agaricus'', as well as basidiomycetes previously classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Lepiotaceae, and Lycoperdaceae. Taxonomy The family Agaricaceae was published by French botanist François Fulgis Chevallier in 1826. It is named after the type genus ''Agaricus'', originally circumscribed by Carl Linnaeus in his 1753 work ''Species Plantarum''. In his authoritative 1986 classification of the Agaricales, Rolf Singer divided the Agaricaceae into four tribes distinguished largely by spore color: ''Leucocoprineae'', ''Agariceae'', ''Lepioteae'', and ''Cystodermateae''. Genera once classified in the families Tulostomataceae, Battarreaceae, Lycoperdaceae, and Mycenastraceae have since been moved to the Agaricaceae based on molecular phylogenetics studies. According to a standard reference text, the Agaricaceae contains 85 genera and 1340 species. Description Agaricaceae species use a wide variety o ...

Species Description
A species description is a formal description of a newly discovered species, usually in the form of a scientific paper. Its purpose is to give a clear description of a new species of organism and explain how it differs from species that have been described previously or are related. In order for species to be validly described, they need to follow guidelines established over time. Zoological naming requires adherence to the ICZN code, plants, the ICN, viruses ICTV, and so on. The species description often contains photographs or other illustrations of type material along with a note on where they are deposited. The publication in which the species is described gives the new species a formal scientific name. Some 1.9 million species have been identified and described, out of some 8.7 million that may actually exist. Millions more have become extinct throughout the existence of life on Earth. Naming process A name of a new species becomes valid (available in zo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Leucocoprinus Fragilissimus
''Leucocoprinus fragilissimus'', commonly known as the fragile dapperling, is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Agaricaceae. Taxonomy As with many of the most well known ''Leucocoprinus'' species the taxonomic history of this species is complex with numerous early mycologists classifying it independently before the species were later merged. As a result the authorities recognised today aren't necessarily the first to document this species but rather the first to document the basionym which ultimately ended up classified as ''Leucocoprinus fragilissimus.'' The first description of this species was made in 1805 by Johannes Baptista von Albertini and Lewis David de Schweinitz who classified it as ''Agaricus flammula.'' This basionym was reclassified as ''Lepiota flammula'' in 1874 by the French botanist Claude Casimir Gillet and then ''Pholiota flammula'' in 1912 by the Italian mycologist Vincenzo Migliozzi. In 1853 ''Hiatula fragilissima'' was described by the British b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Leucocoprinus Thoenii
''Leucocoprinus thoenii'' is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. Taxonomy It was first described in 1977 by the Belgian mycologist Paul Heinemann who classified it as ''Leucocoprinus thoenii.'' Heinemann notes that this species may be the same as ''Lepiota elongata'' which the Belgian mycologist Maurice Beeli had annotated an illustration with but never formally classified. Description ''Leucocoprinus'' ''thoenii'' is a small yellow dapperling mushroom. Heinemann provided only a basic description of the features species based on a dried specimen provided by D. Thoen and an observation logged with the Meise Botanic Garden by M. Goossens-Fontana in 1939 which Beeli had annotated with a suggested name. Cap: Entirely yellow and bulbous at first, expanding and spreading out as it matures. It is covered in small scales (furfuraceous) and striated at the edges of the cap to around three quarters of the way up. Gills: Free, collared. ...

Leucocoprinus
''Leucocoprinus'' is a genus of fungi in the family Agaricaceae. Its best-known member is the distinctive yellow mushroom '' Leucocoprinus birnbaumii'', which is found in plant pots and greenhouses worldwide. The type species is '' Leucocoprinus cepistipes''. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains over 80 recognised species, however many of these species are very scarcely recorded and little known with only a small number of ''Leucocoprinus'' species which are commonly observed. The majority of the species in this genus are exclusive to tropical environments however numerous species have become a common sight in plant pots and greenhouses resulting in them becoming well known worldwide. It is likely that some of the observations for these common species are misidentified with observations for ''L. birnbaumii'' in particular often being conflated with other species simply because it is better known or more frequently suggested by image recognition algorithms.
