Encelia farinosa (commonly known as brittlebush, brittlebrush, or incienso), is a common desert shrub of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. It has a variety of historical uses. It has a variety of historical uses.
While it is relatively easy to identify a sample mushroom as belonging to this genus, it is a significant challenge to distinguish member species of Russula. This task often requires microscopic characteristics, and subtle subjective distinctions, such as the difference between a mild to bitter and a mild to acrid flavor.
Developed by Julius Schäffer to help with the identification of Agaricus species. A positive reaction of Schaeffer's test, which uses the reaction of aniline and nitric acid on the surface of the mushroom, is indicated by an orange to red color; it is characteristic of species in the section Flavescentes. The compounds responsible for the ...
Remember, the family that was hospitalized did the right thing, they literally bought a book to help them identify mushrooms. If AI wasn’t a factor, the people behind the book would absolutely ...
A 2008 molecular phylogenetic study clarified the relationships among the mushroom-forming species of the family. [15] The authors demonstrated the existence of four distinct lineages of gilled mushrooms, which led to the description of Multifurca as a new genus separated from Russula [15] and the segregation of Lactifluus from Lactarius.

Encelia californica. Encelia is a genus of the plant family Asteraceae whose members are frequently called brittlebushes.It consists of shrubs (and one geophyte) of arid environments in southwestern North America and western South America.
Lactarius is a genus of mushroom-producing, ectomycorrhizal fungi, containing several edible species. The species of the genus, commonly known as milk-caps, are characterized by the milky fluid ("latex") they exude when cut or damaged. Like the closely related genus Russula, their flesh has a distinctive brittle consistency.
Both the specific epithets sanguinaria and sanguinea are derived from the Latin word sanguis ('blood'), a reference to the mushroom's colour. [2] According to David Arora in 1986, it was unclear whether this European species is the same as the American species Russula rosacea. [1] According to a 2012 field guide, they are the same. [3]
