Sign in to save

Armillaria is a genus of fungi that includes the A. mellea species ('honey fungus') that live on trees and woody shrubs. It includes about 10 species formerly categorized summarily as A. mellea. Armillaria sp. are long-lived and form the largest living fungi in the world. The largest known specimen (an A. ostoyae) covers more than in Oregon and is estimated to be 2,500 years old. Some species of Armillaria display bioluminescence.

OverviewAI-generated

Armillaria is a genus of fungi within the family Physalacriaceae. It belongs to the kingdom Fungi, phylum Basidiomycota, class Agaricomycetes, and order Agaricales. The genus was described by Staude, with the type species being Armillaria mellea. Members of this genus feature a lamella hymenium and produce white spore prints. They are classified as parasitic mushrooms and are considered edible. The common name for the genus includes "Honey Mushroom" and "апенька."

Records of Armillaria have been documented in various countries, including Mexico, Brasil, Austria, the United States, and Australia. Institutions such as UJAT, UFPB, F, UFRGS, and NCU hold related records. The organism has been the subject of 550 PubMed entries and has 109,019 occurrence records in GBIF. Additionally, iNaturalist lists 43,019 observations, while iDigBio contains 764 records with 518 media files.

Armillaria is a genus of fungi that includes the A. mellea species ('honey fungus') that live on trees and woody shrubs. It includes about 10 species formerly categorized summarily as A. mellea. Armillaria sp. are long-lived and form the largest living fungi in the world. The largest known specimen (an A. ostoyae) covers more than in Oregon and is estimated to be 2,500 years old. Some species of Armillaria display bioluminescence.

Armillaria can be a destructive forest pathogen. It causes "white rot" root disease. As it feeds on dead plant material, it can kill its host with little negative effect to itself.
