Agaricus, also known as the prince mushroom or field mushroom, is a fascinating genus that encompasses various varieties of mushrooms. One well-known member of this group is the fly agaric (Agaricus muscarius), with its distinctive red cap and white spots. However, not all agaricus species are as visually striking. In 1876, Mushrooms Walsh 7-11 and Funghi / Cordier 2 provided detailed information about several agaricus species. Among them was the honey mushroom (Armillaria mellea), which goes by different scientific names like Agaricus melleus and is considered edible. Its sweet taste makes it a delightful addition to culinary dishes. However, caution must be exercised when dealing with agaricus mushrooms since some can be poisonous. The false death cap (Amanita citrina) falls under this category and has been mistakenly referred to as Agaricus mappa in the past. It's crucial to correctly identify these fungi before consumption due to their toxic properties. On a positive note, there are numerous edible agaricus species worth exploring for gastronomic purposes. AGARICUS EBURNEUS AGARICUS VIRGINEUS from 1876 offers an enticing option for those seeking an enjoyable dining experience without any health risks. AGARICUS SPECIOSUS AGARICUS PARVULUS from the same year should be avoided due to its poisonous nature; however, AGARICUS ALBELLUS AGARICUS GRAVEOLENS presents another safe choice for consumption. Lastly, let us not forget about AGARICU MELLEU from 1876 - yet another deliciously edible variety within this diverse genus.
