The Rillstielige Seitling ( Pleurotus cornucopiae ) is a fungus of the genus oyster ( Pleurotus ).
description
The Rillstielige Seitling is a mushroom with an eccentric stem and 5–12 cm wide hats. On top it is pale yellow-brown to gray-brownish in color, the color depends on the location, the sunnier it is, the darker the colors, and the fungus fades with age. The top is a little flaky at first, but becomes bald with age. The dirty-white lamellae often have a pink sheen, they stand together, form anastomoses on the stem and run down the stem like a thread, making it appear ribbed or grooved (name!). The short stem, like the lamellas, is dirty-whitish and bare, only the base is covered with a little white felt. The rill-stalked mushroom smells like flour, the meat is initially soft and later becomes tough.
ecology
The Rillstielige Seitling is a weak parasite and saprobiont on deciduous trees, especially poplar and elm ; in addition to these species, other hardwoods are attacked. It occurs above all in near-natural alluvial forests, in poplar plantations, in parks and on street trees in inner cities. Due to the transformation of its natural habitat, the Rillstielige Seitling is increasingly endangered.
distribution
The Rillstielige Seitling is widespread in warmer areas of the Holarctic, in Europe it has a distribution focus in the Balkans, in Central and Western Europe it is rarer. In Germany it occurs mainly in the large, heat-favored river valleys and is absent in higher altitudes.
meaning
The rill-stalked mushroom is edible, as a wood pest it is insignificant.
