The anise-counting ( Lentinellus cochleatus ) is a mushroom from the family of the ear spoon-stinging relatives (Auriscalpiaceae). The fruiting bodies , growing in clusters on rotten wood, are characterized by funnel-shaped hats, tough meat and the smell of aniseed .
features
Macroscopic features
The fruiting bodies are divided into a hat and a stalk that sits centrally to the side . The convex, later funnel-shaped to bag-like cap in young mushrooms is 25–55 (–70) mm wide and wavy. Sometimes several hats have grown together. The edge of the hat, which is rolled up when young and is sharp in the case of older fruiting bodies, is often indented or incised on one side. The upper side is colored leather-yellow to brown-red, the surface is smooth to slightly wrinkled and matt.
The lamellas on the underside of the hat run down the handle, are close together and heavily notched on the cutting edges. Long and short slats are arranged in a mixed manner. The color of the lamellae ranges from whitish to brownish. The spore powder of the anise counting is whitish-cream in color.
The stem is 30–80 (–100) mm long and 4–8 (–10) mm thick. The surface of the full, tough, elastic stem is grooved lengthways, the stem color corresponds to the color of the hat in the upper half. The lower part of the stem is darker, gray to reddish brown. The fruit bodies are grown together in tufts at the base of the stem.
The soft to gristly tough and watery flesh of the mushroom is whitish to pale brown in color. The smell of the mushroom is clearly anise-like, the mild taste also has an aniseed component. A variety of inolens mentioned in the literature has no aniseed odor.
Microscopic features
The rounded, hyaline spores are smooth to finely ornamented and contain a drop of oil. They measure 3.9–5.2 × 3.9–4.7 µm. The cylindrical, four-pore basidia are 20–25 µm long and 5–5.5 µm thick.
Species delimitation and systematics
The anise counting is difficult to confuse with other types of mushrooms due to its typical fruit body shape and characteristic smell. It is the type species of its genus, although its systematic position is still disputed. In 1983 Moser assigned the species to the “porial genera with a lamellar hymenophore ”. She had previously included Singer among the Tricholomataceae , but later excluded from this family. The current assignment to the Auriscalpiaceae goes back to Maas Geesteranus 1963.
Ecology and phenology
The species grows saprobion table on rotten stumps or roots of deciduous trees, especially red beeches ; seldom it also colonizes softwoods. The fructification takes place from July to November.
distribution
The species is distributed almost worldwide. There is evidence from Australia, North Asia (Eastern Siberia, Japan), North and Central America (USA, Canada, Panama) and Europe. In Europe the anise-counting is spread submeridional to boreal . The main area of distribution is in southern Central Europe. The counting has been proven in almost all of Europe. In the south it occurs from Spain to the Ukraine, it is also widespread throughout Western and Central Europe. In northern Europe it can be found all over Fennoscandinavia . In Sweden the species was detected up to the 67th parallel.
In Germany, the anise counting is widespread from the sea coast to the Alps, with areas of agglomeration and loosening alternating.
meaning
The anise-counting is edible , although the literature recommends using it as a seasoning mushroom due to the tough meat and the aniseed taste .
