Although it may reach up to 5 cm (2 in) in total length, and is 1 to 3 cm (3 ⁄ 8 to 1 + 1 ⁄ 8 in) wide, only about 0.1 to 1 cm (1 ⁄ 16 to 3 ⁄ 8 in) appear above ground. The upper part is covered with the same teeth found on the underside of the cap, whereas the lower part is hairy and often encases debris from the forest floor . [ 14 ]
The species is characterized by its extremely slimy cap. The cap of H. eburneus is 2 to 7 cm (0.8 to 2.8 in) broad, with a shape ranging from convex to flattened, [11] sometimes with an umbo (a raised area in the center of the cap).
Mushroom production will occur when the moisture content of the soil and humidity of the air is adequate. Even when no mushrooms are visible the fungus may still be alive and thriving in the soil waiting for the next opportunity to fruit. As a saprotrophic species L. birnbaumii is harmless to plants.
Agaricus bernardii, commonly called the salt-loving agaricus, [2] or salty mushroom, is an agaric fungus in the family Agaricaceae. The mushroom's thick stem is usually shorter than the diameter of the cap , which ranges from 5–15 centimetres (2–6 inches) and is convex to flattened.

Each subterranean sclerotium produces several mushrooms above ground. Laetiporus sulphureus, Polyporaceae Widespread in Northern Hemisphere. Approximately half of a specimen found by Ty Whitmore near Maysville, Missouri in October 2005 was 76 cm (30 in) wide by 41 cm (16 in) top to bottom. [47] [48] [49] 41 cm (16 in) top to bottom.

The results of the study by Lushaj et al. [3] showed that Armillaria tabescens was most frequently recorded on fruit and ornamental trees compared to the other species. [3] Armillaria tabescens causes separation of the bark from the wood by the production of mycelial fans in the trunk, a common sign of Armillaria root rot. [2]
