Enokitake (Enoki mushroom) - Flammulina velutipes
Basidiomycetes, order Acarids, family Tricholomataceae. It grows on dead stumps of broad-leaved trees such as Enoki, persimmon, and poplar from late autumn to spring. It can therefore be cut from various broad-leaved trees and cultivated as logs. Recently, industrial production using sawdust has become popular. The cap is initially round and then flattens out. It is 2-8 cm in diameter, and the surface is sticky when wet, yellowish brown or tan, darker in the center and lighter near the edge. The underside has white folds. The stalk is hard, 2-8 mm thick and 2-8 cm long, dark brown and densely covered with short hairs. The spore print is white. It is widely used as an edible mushroom. It is found throughout Japan, and is widely distributed in North America, Europe, Australia, China, and Siberia.
