Lab 5 Journal Entry

During Lab 5, I observed the fungus Pleurotus pulmonarius, or summer oyster mushrooms. These mushrooms grow between late April and September, as opposed to "true" oyster mushrooms, which are one of the few fungi that grow during the winter months. They can be found in subtropical as well as temperate forests around the world. They grow on both downed and upright trees, as well as on branches. They are most commonly found on beech trees but will grow on any hardwood tree. Summer oyster mushrooms are edible, and are the most popular mushroom in China (Barba Belletini, 2016). Summer oyster mushrooms have a white, convex cap that runs between three and 10 centimeters across, with short white gills running down the stem.
