Tea tree mushroom (Agrocybe chaxingu) belongs to the order Agaricales, family Bolbitiaceae, genus Agrocybe, and is also known as tea mushroom, oil tea mushroom, divine mushroom, and tea new mushroom. The cap is initially convex, later flattening out, shallow at the center, brown, with a paler margin. The flesh is white and thick. The gills are adnate or obscurely separated from the stem, initially brown, later light brown. The stem is solid, 4-12 cm long, pale yellowish-brown. The ring is white, membranous, and positioned superiorly. Spores are ovoid to ellipsoid. Traditional Chinese medicine holds that this mushroom is sweet and warm in nature, non-toxic, and has the effects of strengthening the spleen and stopping diarrhea, promoting urination and draining dampness, and clearing heat and calming the liver.
