CYCLOMYCES 



Pores long, narrow and gill-like, but concentric in place of radiate, as in all 

 the preceding. In old age, the partitions disappear, and the plant appears to be a 

 gill fungus with concentric gills. Our species has a central stem. The cap is more 

 or less fleshy, but it is not known to be edible. The name refers to the cyclic gills 

 or pores.
