Leucocoprinus brunneoluteus is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. [1] [2]
L. brunneoluteus was classified by the mycologists Marina Capelari and Luciana Jandelli Gimenes in 2004. [3] [4]
Leucocoprinus brunneoluteus is a small dapperling mushroom with thin yellow flesh that is superficially similar to Leucocoprinus birnbaumii but with a more distinctly pronounced brown umbo.
Cap: 1.2-4.5 cm wide, subconical when immature expanding to convex and finally planar with slightly uplifting cap margins and a pronounced dark brown umbo. The cap surface is otherwise bright yellow with dark brown scales that become sparser away from the umbo and towards the edges. The plicate-striate striations extend from the margins almost to the centre disc. Stem: 3.5-9cm tall and 2-7mm thick with a slightly bulbous base and tapering at the top of the stem. The surface is the same yellow hue as the cap and gills and the interior is hollow. The yellow-brown stem ring is located towards the top of the stem (superior) however it may disappear with maturity. Gills: Free and remote from the stem, crowded and yellow. Spore print: White. Spores: Elliptical to ovoid with a germ pore. Dextrinoid. 10-12 x 7-9 μm. [3]
It is described as being similar to L. birnbaumii but differing by the distinct brown colour of the umbo as well as the more membranous quality of the mushroom which is similar to the very thin skinned and fragile Leucocoprinus fragilissimus. [3] [4]
L. brunneoluteus has been documented from South America. The specimens studied by Capelari and Gimenes were collected from a state park near São Paulo, Brazil where they were found growing on the ground under Pine trees. [3]
The name refers to the colour of the cap and the scales. [3] Brunneoluteus derives from the Latin brunneus meaning dark brown and luteus meaning yellow, yellow-orange. [5]
Leucocoprinus birnbaumii, commonly known as the flower pot parasol, yellow parasol, flowerpot parasol, or plantpot dapperling, is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Agaricaceae. It is common in the tropics and subtropics. However, in temperate regions, it frequently occurs in greenhouses and flowerpots, hence its common names of flowerpot parasol and plantpot dapperling. It is considered to be toxic if consumed.
Leucocoprinus cepistipes, is a species of fungus in the family Agaricaceae. It is typically found on wood debris, such as wood chips but may also grow in potted plants or greenhouses. Typical characteristics include a fine-scaled bell-shaped cap, a partial veil, and a tendency to bruise a yellow to brown when handled.
Leucocoprinus brebissonii is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. It is commonly called the skullcap dapperling due to its distinctive pattern on the cap. This mushroom was only thought to be found in Europe but it has since been observed in the Pacific Northwest and may also be found in Asia.
Leucocoprinus ianthinus is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. Like several other Leucocoprinus species it may have originated in a tropical climate but now finds a home in plant pots, greenhouses and compost piles in many countries. It is not seen in plant pots with the same kind of regularity as the well known Leucocoprinus birnbaumii and not seen in the wild as frequently as Leucocoprinus brebissonii.
Leucocoprinus straminellus is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. Like other Leucocoprinus species it may have originated in a tropical climate but now finds a home in plant pots, greenhouses and compost piles in many countries. Leucocoprinus straminellus is described as being similar to the more commonly known Leucocoprinus birnbaumii but it is smaller and a lighter shade of yellow with smaller spores that lack a germ pore. It is also described as being superficially similar to Leucocoprinus fragilissimus but slightly more robust with flesh that is less translucent.
