Volvariella Reidii
''Volvariella'' is a genus of fungi with deep salmon-pink gills and spore prints. Description The mushrooms lack a ring, and have an Amanita-like volva at the stem base. Some species of ''Amanita'' look similar, but ''Amanita'' has white spores and often have a ring. Since the gills of young ''Volvariella'' are white at first, they are more easily mistaken for ''Amanita''. The genus is estimated to contain about 50 species. Taxonomy Many sources list ''Volvariella'' as a member of the Pluteaceae family, but recent DNA studies have revealed that ''Pluteus'' and ''Volvariella'' evolved separately and have very different DNA. These studies show that ''Volvariella'' is very closely related to "schizophylloid" mushrooms like ''Schizophyllum commune''. Species Uses ''Volvariella volvacea'', well known as the "paddy straw mushroom", is cultured in rice straw in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. This species also favors wood chip piles. It is easy to confuse with ''Amanita'' sp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Volvariella Bombycina
''Volvariella bombycina'', commonly known as the silky volvariella, silky sheath, silky rosegill, silver-silk straw mushroom, or tree mushroom, is a species of fungus in the family Pluteaceae. The basidiocarp, fruit body (mushroom) begins developing in a thin, egg-like sac. This ruptures and the stem expands quickly, leaving the sac at the base of the stem as a volva (mycology), volva. The pileus (mycology), cap, which can attain a diameter of up to , is white to slightly yellowish and covered with silky hairs. On the underside of the cap are closely spaced lamella (mycology), gills, free from attachment to the stipe (mycology), stem, and initially white before turning pink as the spores mature. It is an uncommon but widespread species, having been reported from Eurasia, Australia, North America, and the Caribbean. The mushroom grows singly or in clusters, often appearing in old knotholes and wounds in elms and maples. It is edible mushroom, edible and contains compounds with ...

Volvariella Leucocalix
''Volvariella leucocalix'' is a species of fungus in the family Pluteaceae. Its name is attributed to the white volva pertaining to the species. More specifically, the name comes from the Greek words, ‘leuco’, meaning a whitish color, and ‘calix’, meaning cup. First described by Sa MCA and Felipe Wartchow in 2016 as a species of ''Volvariella''. Description The sporocarp is small and has a fuliginous brown umbonate cap with a diameter of 26 mm. The stem is white and becomes narrower the further up it is and is hollow at its apex. Based on a sample of 30 basidiospores, it was found that their length ranged from 5–5.6 × 2.6–3.6 μm, with an average length 5.2 μm for a single basidiome In fungi, a basidiocarp, basidiome, or basidioma () is the sporocarp of a basidiomycete, the multicellular structure on which the spore-producing hymenium is borne. Basidiocarps are characteristic of the hymenomycetes; rusts and smuts do not ..., the spores are ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
