Hydnum
''Hydnum'' is a genus of fungi in the family Hydnaceae. They are notable for their unusual spore-bearing structures of teeth rather than Lamella (mycology), gills. The best known are the Edible mushroom, edible species ''Hydnum repandum'' and ''Hydnum rufescens, H. rufescens''. There are no known toxic varieties of ''Hydnum.'' Widely regarded as important maintainers of forest ecosystems, the ''Hydnum'' genus is known to have ectomycorrhizal relationships with multiple plant families. ''Hydnum'' has many brittle, white teeth from which the spores drop. Some species have teeth which hang from ascending branches, while other species have teeth which project downwards from the undersurfaces of dead wood. Most ''Hydnum'' species are safe to eat, and contain many fatty acids and antioxidants. Taxonomy and diversity ''Hydnum'' species are found on every continent that is habitable for plant life, with some preferring deep forest regions. Most of the common species, such as ''H. repandum ...

Hydnum Repandum
''Hydnum repandum'', commonly known as the sweet tooth, pig's trotter, wood hedgehog or hedgehog mushroom, is a basidiomycete fungus of the family Hydnaceae. First species description, described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753, it is the type species of the genus ''Hydnum''. The fungus produces fruit bodies (mushrooms) that are characterized by their Basidiospore, spore-bearing structures—in the form of spines rather than lamella (mycology), gills—which hang down from the underside of the pileus (mycology), cap. The cap is dry, colored yellow to light orange to brown, and often develops an irregular shape, especially when it has grown closely crowded with adjacent fruit bodies. The mushroom tissue is white with a pleasant odor and a spicy or bitter taste. All parts of the mushroom stain orange with age or when bruised. A mycorrhizal fungus, ''Hydnum repandum'' is broadly distributed in Europe where it fruits singly or in close groups in coniferous or deciduous woodland. This is a ...

Hydnaceae
The Hydnaceae are a family of fungi in the order Cantharellales. Originally the family encompassed all species of fungi that produced basidiocarps (fruit bodies) having a hymenium (spore-bearing surface) consisting of slender, downward-hanging tapering extensions referred to as "spines" or "teeth", whether they were related or not. This artificial but often useful grouping is now more generally called the hydnoid or tooth fungi. In the strict, modern sense, the Hydnaceae are limited to the genus ''Hydnum'' and related genera, with basidiocarps having a toothed or poroid hymenium. Species in the family are ectomycorrhizal, forming a mutually beneficial relationship with the roots of trees and other plants. '' Hydnum repandum'' (the hedgehog fungus) is an edible species, commercially collected in some countries and often marketed under the French name ''pied de mouton''. Taxonomy History The family was originally described in 1826 by French botanist François Fulgis Chevallier ...

Hydnum Rufescens
''Hydnum rufescens'', commonly known as the terracotta hedgehog, is an edible basidiomycete of the family Hydnaceae. It belongs to the small group of mushrooms often referred to as the tooth fungi, which produce fruit bodies whose cap undersurfaces are covered by hymenophores resembling spines or teeth, and not pores or gills. It is very similar to the more common hedgehog fungus (''Hydnum repandum''), and was previously sometimes considered a variety of that species. However, the following differences have been noted:Courtecuisse, R. & Duhem, B. (1994) "Guide des champignons de France et d'Europe" Delachaux et Niestlé , also available in English. *the cap of ''H. rufescens'' is russet rather than beige, *the overall dimensions are smaller and more regular in shape, with a central stipe, *the spines are not decurrent, and *the spores are slightly larger. Both species are found in European coniferous and deciduous forests growing on soil. It is reportedly ectomycorrhizal wi ...

Hydnum Ambustum
''Hydnum crocidens'' is a species of fungus in the family Hydnaceae native to Australia. It was described in 1890 by Mordecai Cubitt Cooke Mordecai Cubitt Cooke (12 July 1825, in Horning, Norfolk – 12 November 1914, in Southsea, Hampshire) was an English botanist and mycologist who was, at various points, a London schoolteacher, a Kew mycologist, curator at the India Museum, jour ... from material collected around Port Phillip Bay. Genetic analysis shows it to be closely related to a lineage containing ''H. rufescens'' and its close relatives.
