The dusting hermaphrodite ( Asterophora lycoperdoides , syn .: Nyctalis asterophora ) is a type of mushroom from the family of rasling relatives .
features
The dusting hermaphrodite usually forms in groups or in tufts of growing fruit bodies with 1–2 cm wide hats, which are initially whitish-flaky, later becoming cinnamon-colored to brownish floury due to the disintegration into chlamydospores . The lamellae are light gray, thick, they are distant and are only indistinctly developed and can also be completely absent. The stem becomes up to 3 cm long and 3–5 mm thick, it is whitish in color, later turning brownish and blackening, it is often bent, and finally the stem becomes hollow. The flesh is pale. The fruit bodies smell and taste like flour. The surface of the hat breaks down in old age into brownish, oval-round, warty to blunt-prickly chlamydospores that are 13-20 µm long and 10-20 µm wide. The basidospores are smooth, elliptical and translucent (hyaline).
ecology
The dusting hermaphrodite grows saprobiontically on rotting fruiting bodies of black blotchers , especially on Russula adusta , Russula densifolia and Russula nigricans , more rarely also on milklings, e.g. B. Lactarius vellereus . The species is found in various forests, especially beech, beech-fir, spruce-fir forests and in spruce forests. Apparently it occurs only on acidic or neutral and not on basic soils, in damp places. The fruiting bodies appear in Central Europe especially in rainy years from late July to early November.
distribution
The dusting hermaphrodite is common in the Holarctic and is found in Siberia , Japan, and North America. In Europe it occurs from the Balearic Islands , Corsica , Italy and Romania across western and central Europe to Estonia , Denmark and Sweden .
meaning
The dusting hermaphrodite is out of the question as an edible mushroom.
