Mushroom Cultivation 0 views
Panellus stipticus is also known as the hemostatic fan mushroom. Taxonomically it belongs to the Basidiomycotina, Hymenomycetes, Agaricales, Tricholomataceae, and the genus Panellus. The fruiting bodies grow in groups or clusters, arranged in an imbricate (roof-tile-like) pattern. The cap is 1-3 cm in diameter, tough, kidney-shaped or semicircular, initially white, later turning dark yellow or cinnamon, with the surface cracking into bran-like scales and the margin inrolled. The stipe is lateral, thick and short, solid, the same color as the cap, with small scales covering the surface. The gills are narrow and crowded, yellow or cinnamon, darkening when dry, with cross-veins connecting the gills. This fungus is a wood-rotting macrofungus that frequently occurs on mushroom logs.

The fruiting bodies of Panellus stipticus are collected, air-dried, and ground into powder, which is effective for treating external wounds and stopping bleeding.

Control method: When fruiting bodies of this fungus are found, scrape them off promptly and brush the scraped area with 10% concentrated limewater.
