The following is a list of species of the agaric genus Amanita.This genus contains over 500 named species and varieties and follows the classification of subgenera and sections of Amanita outline by Corner and Bas; Bas, [1] [2] as used by Tulloss (2007) and modified by Redhead & al. (2016) [3] for Amanita subgenus Amanitina and Singer for Amanita section Roanokenses.
The genus Amanita was first published with its current meaning by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1797. [1] Under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, Persoon's concept of Amanita, with Amanita muscaria (L.) Pers. as the type species, has been officially conserved against the older Amanita Boehm (1760), which is considered a synonym of Agaricus L. [2]
Common best practice is for wild mushroom pickers to focus on collecting a small number of visually distinctive, edible mushroom species that cannot be easily confused with poisonous varieties. Common mushroom hunting advice is that if a mushroom cannot be positively identified, it should be considered poisonous and not eaten.
Pleurotus ostreatus, the oyster mushroom, oyster fungus, hiratake, or pearl oyster mushroom is a common edible mushroom. [2] It is one of the more commonly sought wild mushrooms, though it can also be cultivated on straw and other media.
The following is an incomplete list of species of the mushroom genus Boletus.The genus has a widespread distribution and contains about 300 species. [1] However, the genus is polyphyletic, and approximately only 10 percent of the described species are actually members of the Boletus sensu stricto clade (Singer's Boletus section Boletus, also known as the "Porcini Clade").
Lepiota is a genus of gilled mushrooms in the family Agaricaceae. All Lepiota species are ground-dwelling saprotrophs with a preference for rich, calcareous soils. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are agaricoid with whitish spores, typically with scaly caps and a ring on the stipe. Around 400 species of Lepiota are currently recognized worldwide.
They are a morphological group of basidiomycetes-like gilled mushrooms and hydnoid fungi, and not all polypores are closely related to each other. Polypores are also called bracket fungi or shelf fungi , and they characteristically produce woody, shelf- or bracket-shaped or occasionally circular fruiting bodies that are called conks . [ 1 ]
