Pluteus
''Pluteus'' is a large genus of fungi with over 300 species. They are wood rotting saprobes with pink spore prints and gills that are free from the stem. The Latin word ''Pluteus'' means ''shed or penthouse''. Characteristics of the genus Characteristics of the ''Pluteus'' genus are: #These fungi grow on wood or wood remains. #The spore powder is deep pink, soon giving a pink tint to the initially pale gills. #The gills are free from the stipe. #There is no volva or ring (exception: the rare recently reclassified North American species ''P. mammillatus'', previously ''Chamaeota sphaerospora''). #Microscopically, they often have abundant, distinctive cystidia. The spores are smooth and roughly egg-shaped. ''Pluteus'' is separated from '' Volvariella'' due to the lack of a volva, and from ''Entoloma'' by growing on wood and by microscopic features (''Entolomas'' have angular spores). Naming The name ''Pluteus'' was established in 1837 by the founding mycologist Elias Magn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
List Of Pluteus Species
This is an incomplete list of species in the agaric genus ''Pluteus''. Species of ''Pluteus'' are commonly found growing on woody substrates including stumps, logs, fallen branches, woody debris such as sawdust, and buried wood. Three sections are widely accepted in ''Pluteus'', including ''Pluteus'', ''Hispidoderma'' Fayod, and ''Celluloderma'' Fayod. Section ''Pluteus'' is characterized by fruit bodies with a filamentous cap cuticle The pileipellis is the uppermost layer of hyphae in the pileus of a fungal fruit body. It covers the trama, the fleshy tissue of the fruit body. The pileipellis is more or less synonymous with the cuticle, but the cuticle generally describes th ...

Pluteus Nevadensis
''Pluteus nevadensis'' is a species of fungus in the agaric family Pluteaceae. Described as new to science in 2010, the species is known only from subtropical and pine forests in Mexico, where it grows on rotting pine and oak wood. Fruit bodies (mushrooms) have red-orange caps up to in diameter with a shape ranging from conic, convex, or flattened, depending on their age. The silky yellow stems are up to long. It is similar in appearance to '' Pluteus aurantiorugosus'', with which it shares an orange- or scarlet-colored cap and a yellow stem. ''P. nevadensis'' can be distinguished from this and other superficially similar ''Pluteus'' species by differences in microscopic characteristics. Taxonomy The species was described by Olivia Rodríguez in 2010 in the journal ''Mycotaxon'', based on collections made in 1991. The holotype material was collected on the Colima volcano, in the Municipality of Zapotlán el Grande, at an elevation of . The species was formerly referred ...

Pluteus Cervinus
''Pluteus cervinus'', commonly known as the deer shield, deer mushroom, or fawn mushroom, is a species of fungus in the order Agaricales. Fruit bodies are agaricoid (mushroom-shaped). ''Pluteus cervinus'' is saprotrophic and fruit bodies are found on rotten logs, roots, tree stumps, sawdust, and other wood waste. It is common in Europe and eastern North America. Etymology The species epithet, ''cervinus'', means "deer-like"" and refers to the colour of the cap (described as "rehfarbig" in Jacob Christian Schäffer's original 1774 description). Description The Pileus (mycology), cap typically grows up to in diameter. Initially it is bell-shaped and often wrinkled when young. Later it expands to a convex shape. The cap can be deer-brown, but varies from light ochre-brown to dark brown, with a variable admixture of grey or black. The centre of the cap may be darker. The cap surface is smooth and matt to silky-reflective. The cap skin shows dark radial fibres when seen through ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pluteus Salicinus
''Pluteus salicinus'' is a European psychedelic mushroom that grows on wood. It is an edible mushroom after parboiling. Taxonomy The species was originally described by Christian Hendrik Persoon as ''Agaricus salicinus'' in 1798. Paul Kummer transferred it to the genus '' Pluteus'' in 1871. Description *Cap: 2 — 5(8) cm in diameter, convex becoming broadly convex to plane, silver-gray to brownish-gray, often with blue or greenish tint in age, smooth, with tiny scales near the center, darker at the margin, slightly translucent-striate when moist, unlined cap margin, flesh white with a grayish tinge, thin to moderate. Cap skin fibrous. *Gills: Crowded, broad, free, at first white, becoming pink-flesh colored; ventricose. Edges discoloring or bruising grayish. *Stipe: 3 — 5(10) long, 0.2 — 0.6 cm thick, more or less equal or slightly swollen at the base, flesh white with grayish-green to bluish-green tones, especially near the base.

Pluteus Brunneidiscus
''Pluteus brunneidiscus'' is a species of agaric fungus in the family Pluteaceae. It was first described scientifically by American mycologist William Alphonso Murrill in 1917. It is found in Europe (Spain) and North America. Description Pileus and stipe without blue-green tinges. Specimens are small to medium-sized and have a brown pileus which is usually darker at the center. Habitat and distribution Solitary, on wood of broad-leaved trees.

Pluteus Leoninus
''Pluteus leoninus'', commonly known as lion shield, can occasionally be found growing on dead wood in Europe and North Africa. The underside of the cap is typical of the genus ''Pluteus'' — the gills are pale, soon becoming pink when the spores ripen. But the upper surface is a bright tawny or olivaceous yellow. The species name ''leoninus'' (meaning leonine) refers to this cap colour. Description This description is combined from several references. *The golden to olive-yellow convex cap is 3–7 cm in diameter, is hygrophanous, and usually has a grooved edge. The darker central disc has a slight velvety tomentum. *The gills are yellowish at first, then salmon pink (the colour of the spore powder). *The stipe is up to about 7 cm, often striate, being white to cream, and often darker near the base. *The mushroom grows on stumps and wood debris of broad-leaved trees and sometimes of conifers. *At the microscopic level, the filamentous cap cuticle is a trichoder ...
