Two whole red-capped mushrooms with netted red stalks stand beside two lengthwise halves showing yellow flesh and tubes on a warm ivory background.

Heimioporus japonicus

Heimioporus japonicus is an ectomycorrhizal bolete recorded from China and East Asia. Its edibility is contested: one source records sale, another a toxic status and gastroenteritis.

Three peeled, swollen cream-white water-bamboo stems with green leafy tops rest on a warm ivory surface.

Water-bamboo smut

Water-bamboo smut is the swollen gall that the fungus Ustilago esculenta forms on the aquatic grass Zizania latifolia. It is eaten as a vegetable in China and elsewhere in East and Southeast Asia.

Two whole orange-capped mushrooms with mottled yellow-red stems and one lengthwise half showing pale flesh and gills rest against a warm ivory background.
