Abstract

Macrofungi growing in nature are grouped as edible, inedible and poisonous. There are about 300 edible nature mushroom species in Türkiye. As in the world, macrofungi are one of the important food sources in terms of closing the food deficit in our country. Agaricus gennadii var. microsporus (Bohus) Wasser is a rare and very edible mushroom with a mild taste that grows mainly on forest soils and on meadows. Although this taxon is very common in the meadows of Kayseri, located in central Anatolia (Türkiye) and frequently collected and eaten by the folk between October and the end of December, it was never reported in the checklists of Türkiye. In this study, Agaricus gennadii var. microsporus was studied in terms of morphological, anatomical and molecular aspects and added to the fungal checklist of Türkiye.
