Russula Illota
''Russula illota'' is an inedible species of mushroom in the genus '' Russula''. It is commonly found in deciduous and coniferous forests on chalk. Description The cap is spherical when young, later broadly convex and can be flat when old. It is dull ochre and covered in a grey slime, up to 15 cm in diameter. The gills are pale cream and close together, giving off a scent of bitter almonds when rubbed. The spores are also pale cream. The stem is white and becomes blotchy with age. Similar species '' Russula laurocerasi'' is not yet technically distinguished from this species. See also * List of ''Russula'' species References *E. Garnweidner.

Henri Romagnesi
Henri Charles Louis Romagnesi (7 February 1912 – 18 January 1999) was a French mycologist who was notable for a thorough review and monograph of the agaric genus ''Entoloma'' (or ''Rhodophyllus'' as it was known in the early 20th century), as well as extensive work on the large genus ''Russula'', of which he described several new species.

Russula
''Russula'' is a very large genus composed of around 750 worldwide species of ectomycorrhizal mushrooms. They are typically common, fairly large, and brightly colored – making them one of the most recognizable genera among mycologists and mushroom collectors. Their distinguishing characteristics include usually brightly coloured caps, a white to dark yellow spore print, brittle, attached gill (mushroom), gills, an absence of latex, and absence of partial veil or universal veil, volva tissue on the stem. Microscopically, the genus is characterised by the amyloid ornamented spores and flesh (trama) composed of spherocysts. Members of the related genus ''Lactarius (fungus), Lactarius'' have similar characteristics but emit a milky latex when their gills are broken. The genus was described by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1796. Taxonomy Christian Hendrik Persoon first circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed the genus ''Russula'' in his 1796 work ''Observationes Mycologicae'', and c ...

Russula Laurocerasi
''Russula grata'' is a species of fungus belonging to the family Russulaceae. It has a cosmopolitan distribution In biogeography, cosmopolitan distribution is the term for the range of a taxon that extends across all or most of the world in appropriate habitats. Such a taxon, usually a species, is said to exhibit cosmopolitanism or cosmopolitism. The ext .... References {{Taxonbar, from=Q1888914 grata Taxa named by Max Britzelmayr Fungus species ...

Fungi Of Europe
A fungus (plural, : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of Eukaryote, eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and Mold (fungus), molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a Kingdom (biology), 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 motility, 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 gro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
