The type species of Emericellopsis, a soil mold described by van Beyma in 1940 among new species from the Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures in Baarn. It forms tiny fruit bodies with round asci holding eight light brown ascospores that carry wing-like ridges, alongside an asexual state of colorless conidia. It is known mainly from laboratory cultures of soil isolates, and detailed modern data on this species are scarce.
Not edible; a microscopic soil mold. No toxicity documented.
Never eat a wild mushroom based on a web page — confirm with an expert.
Mycology is an evolving science: names, classifications and safety information change as research advances. Entries are compiled from cited sources and reviewed, but may be incomplete or out of date — check the sources, and never rely on this library alone to identify or eat a mushroom.
