Everything about Tooth Fungus totally explained
Tooth fungi are a relatively small
polyphyletic group of fungi whose
mushroom bears its spores on a
hymenium - a layer of "mother
cells" -
Although many tooth fungi are hard and inedible, some are prized both for their flavor and their ease of identification, such as
Hericium erinaceus, the "bearded tooth mushroom". Other species, though not edible, find use in the production of natural dyes.
Despite their physical similiarites,
molecular phylogeny has divided the tooth fungi among several orders, including
Cantharellales (including the
hedgehog mushroom),
Russulales (including the bearded tooth mushroom), and
Thelephorales. Another fungus - the
toothed jelly fungus,
Pseudohydnum gelatinosum - has "teeth" but is an even more distantly related, as one of the
jelly fungi.
