  COPRINUS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
There are many species of Coprinus, collectively known as the "Ink Caps", because as the fruitbodies mature they senesce from the edge of the cap inwards, dripping a fl, inky fluid containing the spores.
Coprinus species are very common and tend to be short-lived, growing rapidly on a range of substrates such as straw, woody substrates and dung.
Fruitbodies of Coprinus lagopus, emerging among woodchips in a nutrient-rich compost.

 Coprinus niveus
Coprinus niveus is a rather fragile ink cap with a chalky coating (velar remains) on the caps and stems of young specimens.
Coprinus atramentarius is larger and lacks the white granular cap covering.
Coprinus micaceus has a granular cap but is reddish-brown and grows on buried wood and at the base of tree stumps.

 Observations on the type of Coprinus hercules
Coprinus hercules, a new species related to C. plicatilis, and found on lawns in the Netherlands, is described and illustrated.
Because of its glabrous pileus and stipe and the strongly flattened spores Coprinus hercules certainly belongs to the C. plicatilis-complex, in which it is the species with by far the broadest spores in face view (11.3 -15.2 µm).
Coprinus galericuliformis Losa is according to Losa Espana's illustrations a species with a habit rather different from the other species in the C. plicatilis -complex, viz.

 Coprinus micaceus (MushroomExpert.Com)
It can be distinguished from similar Coprinus species by the fine, mica-like granules that adorn the fresh caps (though rain will frequently wash the granules away!).
The similar Coprinus atramentarius, the "Inky Cap," while edible, reacts with alcohol to cause nausea and other unpleasant symptoms.
Ecology: Saprobic, growing in clusters on decaying wood (the wood may be buried, causing the mushrooms to appear terrestrial); spring, summer, and fall (sometimes in winter); frequently urban, but also found in woods; widely distributed in North America.

 The nutritional requirements of Agaricus bisporus and Coprinus comatus in submerged culture   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Agaricus bisporus and Coprinus comatus were chosen because sufficient amounts of fruit bodies for investigation of the flavour could be obtained easily; the origin of the strains is described in Chapter 6.
The ability of these strains to fix gaseous nitrogen in a complex medium, as found for some mushroom species [53,55,123], was investigated by determination of the total amount of bound nitrogen in a shaken flask containing the CME medium before and after growth; no nitrogen fixation could be demonstrated within the limits of experimental error.
The growth of Coprinus comatus, strain L, was not stimulated by Maillard compounds, this in contrast to strain CBS 150.39 at the lower glucose concentration (Table 15).

 Coprinus comatus, the shaggy mane. Tom Volk's Fungus of the Month for May 2004
This month's fungus is Coprinus comatus, the shaggy mane mushroom, also known as the "lawyer's wig." It is a delicious edible mushroom, one of Clyde Christensen's "Foolprof Four," which also includes Morchella species, the morels, Calvatia gigantea, the giant puffball, and Laetiporus sulphureus, the chicken of the woods, or sulfur shelf mushroom.
Coprinus used to be the one of the easiest mushroom genera to identify.
Since Coprinus is also the type genus of the Coprinaceae (formerly defined as having brown/fl spore print; gills attached; saprophytes on ground or on wood), this inclusion of Coprinus in the Agaricaceae means that Coprinaceae becomes a later synonym of the older name Agaricaceae, and is thus invalid.

 Coprinus cinereus: Project Information   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The Coprinus genome project is a partnership between the Broad Institute and the Coprinus research community.
Spore maturation and active discharge from the cap are accompanied by elongation of the stalk and autodigestion of the remaining gill tissue.
Coprinus cinereus is a higher fungus (Agaricales) comprised of many cell types and, therefore, provides a window on the development of multicellularity within a single kingdom.

 Coprinus micaceus
From tree stumps or buried wood, Coprinus micaceus, the Common Ink Cap, arises in small clumps from spring until early winter.
Covered at first in tiny white granules - the remains of the veil - these egg-shaped caps become bell shaped and lose their mica-like grains as they age.
Coprinus disseminatus also appears in large groups but does not have mica-like granules.

At maturity the cap is nearly plane, striate-plicate, buff to greyish except for a tawny-brown disc.
Coprinus plicatilis is similar but more delicate and has distinctly free gills, the gills connected to a collar near the stipe apex.
Compare also with Coprinus micaceus, a more robust species which is similarly colored but has glistening cap granules when young.

 MYCOVESCENCE
Coprinus comatus, the universally recognized lectotype for Coprinus, and two other species are now recognized as belonging with Lepiota and Agaricus in the Agaricaceae.
Over 95% of the remaining former Coprinus species are now treated with Psathyrella in a separate family, for which the name Psathyrellaceae has been proposed.
Coprinus comatus, or the "shaggy mane", is among the best-known Coprinus species, both commercially and among amateur/field mycologists.

 Coprinus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The genus Coprinus is a small genus of mushrooms consisting of Coprinus comatus (the shaggy mane) and several of its close relatives.
Until 2001, Coprinus was a large genus consisting of all agaric species in which the lamellae autodigested to release their spores.
The majority of species of Coprinus were therefore reclassified into the genera Coprinellus, Coprinopsis, and Parasola.

 Observations on the type of Coprinus spadiceisporus
Coprinus spadiceisporus Van De Bogart in Mycotaxon 4: 245.
Clamp-connections present on the hyphae of the stipe surface and occasionally on the universal veil.
This species shares a peculiar feature with two other species of section Coprinus, C. sterquilinus and C. colosseus, namely, the discoloring and eventual flening of the apical portion of the stipe flesh.

This is the shaggy mane, known as Coprinus comatus, a much sought-after mushroom in the Rocky Mountains and around the world.
Coprinus comatus used to be the type species for the genus Coprinus, and the cornerstone for the entire Coprinaceae, but mycological detective work revealed that the many mushrooms that exhibit deliquescence are unrelated.

 Coprinus comatus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Coprinus comatus, commonly known here as the Shaggy Mane, is a very abundant mushroom in the mountains of the southwestern United States in the late summer and fall.
Coprinus comatus is rather easy to identify and is eaten worldwide, though some European sources and even a few American sources suggest avoiding alcohol after consuming it.
There is little one could confuse it with except possibly Coprinus atramentarius, which is not shaggy and usually is more fleshy, smaller, shorter, bell-shaped and less white.

 California Fungi: Coprinus micaceus
Coprinus micaceus gets its common name from the glistening particles that cover the young, developing caps.
However, it is still easily recognized by the yellow-brown caps, clustered fruiting habit, deliquescing gills, and tendency to fruit near rotting wood.
Coprinus atramentarius is a larger mushroom, which also tends to fruit in clusters, but it has a silky grey-brown cap.

Forty-seven species of Coprinus and 19 additional species from the families Coprinaceae, Strophariaceae, Bolbitiaceae, Agaricaceae, Podaxaceae, and Montagneaceae were studied.
The genus Coprinus is found to be polyphyletic, and is separated into three distinct clades.
This third clade is separated from the other species of Coprinus by members of the families Strophariaceae, Bolbitiaceae, and the genus Panaeolus.

 Coprinus comatus: The Shaggy Mane (MushroomExpert.Com)
Suddenly appearing in people's lawns--in troops or lines or rings--this mushroom is well known and relatively easily recognized.
In the Rocky Mountains, Coprinus comatus can be hunted from the car during monsoon season by simply driving four-wheel-drive roads and keeping an eye on the roadsides.
Mushrooms are very eager absorbers of pollution, however, and one should avoid any specimens growing on well traveled roadsides.

Next to the main life cycle, Coprinus cinereus possesses a number of auxiliary reproductive cycles on both the monokaryon and the dikaryon.
In the aerial mycelium, small rod-shaped unicellular haploid asexual spores, the oidia, arise on specialized structures (oidiophores).
In the submerged mycelium of aging cultures, large thickwalled resting spores appear, the irregularly chlamydospores.
