Fly Agaric

ベニテングタケ(Amanita muscaria)は地球上で最も象徴的で広く知られる菌類であり、北半球の北方林全域に白いいぼのある鮮やかな赤い傘を広げる。童話のような外見とは裏腹に、ムシモールやイボテン酸などの強力な向精神性化合物を含み、中程度の毒性がある。シラカバ、マツ、トウヒと重要な外生菌根共生関係を形成し、無機栄養素と炭素を交換することで北方林の栄養循環に不可欠な役割を担っている。

Hyphoderma definitumはタマチョレイタケ科(Polyporaceae)の皮革菌類で、情報不足(DD)と評価されている。森林環境の腐木上に薄い復着子実体を形成する。限られた採集記録により、包括的な保全評価が困難である。
