Tremella encephala fruit
The fruit body of the shock of the brain jelly -like, Without shine, color from pale pink to yellowish pink, Diameter before 3 cm. She looks like a human brain with a white firm core inside. Film formations (Gyphes) fit tightly to each other, Forming a jelly -like network. Gaustoria branching from GIF, which are connected in the threads and attached to the mushroom mushrooms, Subsequently penetrating inside him. Basidia also has a jelly -like rounded shape (with a vertical septa inside), the size of 12–20 micrometers. Basidiospores are predominantly round, Smooth, the size of 6-11 micrometers.
The fruit body is attached directly to the substrate - the wood mushroom stereum of the red.
The disputes are smooth -cut, not covered with shell and round.
Spreading
Cerebellar shift is common in regions with a temperate climate. It is found in the habitat of the sterelian of the blushing, since it parasitizes on its fruit bodies, often completely covering the owner. In turn, Stereum settles on old coniferous trees.
Similar species
Brain trembling is similar to the following types of yeast:
- Fukus -shaped trembling.
Edible, With white, not a pink fruit body, grows only in the Primorsky Territory and Asian countries.
- Orange shiver.
Edible, grows on deciduous trees and has a more pronounced yellow or orange color.
- The shiver is leafy.
Inedible, dry consistency and dark (Brown) By color.
1-Fukus -shaped trembling. 2-Orange shiver. 3-The shiver is leafy.
None of the listed mushrooms is poisonous, and fucusing and orange varieties are even edible.
Edibility
Brain trembling is not considered edible and is not eaten for food.
Interesting facts
Dense white "insides" of a shiver is a stereum mycelium.
