Bamboo fungus is a cryptogamic fungus parasitic on the roots of dead bamboo. Its shape slightly resembles reticulated dried white snake skin. It has a dark green cap, a snow-white cylindrical stipe, and a pink egg-shaped volva. At the top of the stipe, a ring of delicate white reticulated skirt spreads downward from the cap, and it is called "Snow-skirt Fairy", "Flower of Mountain Delicacies", "Flower of Fungi", and "Queen of Fungi". Bamboo fungus is rich in nutrients, with a rich fragrance and a delicious taste, and has been listed as one of the "Eight Treasures of Grass" since ancient times.
