Agrocybe pediades
Species of fungus / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Agrocybe pediades, commonly known as the common fieldcap or common agrocybe,[1] is a typically lawn and other types of grassland mushroom,[2] but can also grow on mulch containing horse manure. It was first described as Agaricus pediades by Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries in 1821, and moved to its current genus Agrocybe by Victor Fayod in 1889. A synonym for this mushroom is Agrocybe semiorbicularis, though some guides list these separately.[3] Technically it is edible, but it could be confused with poisonous species, including one of the genus Hebeloma.
