Psathyrella Mesobromionis
''Psathyrella'' is a large genus of about 400 species, and is similar to the genera ''Coprinellus ''Coprinellus'' is a genus of mushroom-forming fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae. The genus was circumscribed by the Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1879. Most ''Coprinellus'' species were transferred from the once large genus ''Copr ...'', '' Coprinopsis'', '' Coprinus'' and '' Panaeolus'', usually with a thin pileus (mycology), cap and white or yellowish white hollow stipe (mycology), stem. The caps do not self digest as do those of ''Coprinellus'' and ''Coprinopsis''. Some also have brown spores rather than black. These fungi are often drab-colored, difficult to identify, and all members are considered inedible or worthless (for eating) and so they are often overlooked. However they are quite common and can occur at times when there are few other mushrooms to be seen. The first report of a lamella (mycology), gilled mushroom fruiting underwater is ''Psathyrella aqua ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Psathyrella Corrugis

Originally described from Europe as ''Agaricus corrugis'', the species is considered non-toxic but lacking in flesh, flavor and texture. It is inedible. Nomenclature The lectotype of ''Psathyrella'' is ''Psathyrella gracilis'', however ''P. corrugis'' was published in 1794, 27 years before ''P. gracilis'' was first published, making ''P. corrugis'' the correct name. The name given here is according to Index Fungorum. Description The cap is 1–4 cm wide, bell-shaped and translucent when young; it flattens and becomes opaque with age. The gills are slightly reddish. The whitish stalk is tall and 1–3 mm wide. The spores are purple-brown, elliptical, and smooth. It can be found growing around areas of dead wood. The species sometimes fruits with ''Tubaria furfuracea''. A similar species is ''Psathyrella candolleana ''Candolleomyces candolleanus'' (forme ...
