( Fr. ) JS Seelan, Justo & Hibbett

The anise Sägeblättling ( Neofavolus suavissimus , syn. Panus suavissimus, Lentinus suavissimus, Lentinus anisatus and Lentinus haemotopus ) despite the lamelligen Hymenophors a fungal species from the family of Stielporlingsverwandten . It prefers to grow on willows , which is why it is sometimes referred to as the fragrant willow ball .

features

The anise saw blade forms up to 4 (–6.5) cm wide, flat, funnel-shaped or shell-shaped fruiting bodies . The matt to fine felt hat surface has a light to ocher-yellow color. The edge is rolled up for a long time, sticks out in older specimens and is more or less wavy and bent and finely grooved. The approximately 3 mm wide lamellae are wide and clearly run down the handle. At the base of the handle, they are often strongly forked or cross-connected like a honeycomb. Initially whitish, they later become yellowish, the edges are finely sawn, typical of the species. The spore powder is white in color. The usually slightly lateral stem measures about 1 cm in length and 4 mm in width. It is covered with fine felt over the entire length and has fine grooves in the upper area. The leathery, tough meat is white to yellowish in color and exudes a characteristic smell of aniseed, which is intensified when the fruit bodies dry out.

Ecology and phenology

The anise saw blade is a wood-dwelling saprobiont that mainly colonizes dead willow wood and, more rarely, other hardwoods. The species occurs mainly in alluvial forests and various types of willow bushes, in ravine forests, on streams, in moors and on the edges of forests. Overall, locations that are moist with air and soil are preferred.

The fruiting bodies appear from June to October.

Systematics

For a long time the anise saw blade was part of the genus of saw blades i. e. S. ( Lentinus ). Genetic studies show, however, that within the stalk porling relatives (Polyporaceae) it is more distant with the saw blades i. e. P is used and, as part of the genus Neofavolus in a common clade together with the genera Favolus , Datronia , Echinochaete , Pseudofavolus and radicals of the previous United genus polyporus (z. B. Polyporus . S str., Cerioporus, Picipes ) stands.

distribution

The anise saw blade is widespread in the Holarctic , with preference for temperate and subboreal areas. In Europe, the species is widespread in Scandinavia, Finland and Karelia, it becomes significantly rarer towards the south. In Central and Southeastern Europe it is widespread in the Alps and Carpathians, it is absent in Mediterranean and oceanic areas. In Germany, the species is rare and potentially endangered by the destruction of its habitats (willow bushes on the banks of streams and lakes).

meaning

The anise saw blade is insignificant as a wood dweller, not suitable as an edible mushroom simply because of the tough fruiting bodies.
