Stropharia rugosoannulata
Stropharia rugosoannulata
Stropharia rugosoannulata, commonly known as the wine cap stropharia, "garden giant", burgundy mushroom or king stropharia (Japanese name saketsubatake), is an agaric of the family Strophariaceae found in Europe and North America, and introduced to Australia and New Zealand.
Description
Stropharia rugosoannulata is a large, robust, and attractive agaric, with a wine-red to brown cap when young, fading to a lighter brown or buff with age. The gills are initially pale, becoming purplish-black and mottled as the spores mature. The stem is white, thick, and firm, with a distinctive cogwheel-like ring that is one of the key identifying features of this species.
Habitat and distribution
Stropharia rugosoannulata is a saprobic species, meaning it obtains its nutrients from decaying organic matter. It is commonly found on wood chips and bark mulch in urban areas, as well as in grassy areas and meadows. It has a widespread distribution in Europe and North America, and has been introduced to Australia and New Zealand.
Edibility
Stropharia rugosoannulata is considered a choice edible mushroom. It has a firm texture and a pleasant, nutty flavor. However, as with all wild mushrooms, it should only be consumed if positively identified, and never eaten raw.
Cultivation
Stropharia rugosoannulata is one of the easiest mushrooms to cultivate, and is often grown in gardens for its edible properties. It can be grown on a variety of substrates, including straw, wood chips, and compost.
