Cyclocybe Aegerita

 Cyclocybe aegerita, also called Agrocybe cylindraceaAgrocybe aegerita or Pholiota aegerita, is a mushroom in the genus Cyclocybe which is commonly known as the  black poplar mushroom, or velvet pioppini. The mushroom is a typical ingredient found in both Southern European and Chinese cuisine. In East Asia, it is used fresh and re-hydrated in various dishes, including stir-fry, soup, stew, and hot pot. It has a soft cap and a harder stem. Picking specimens from the wild is not recommended due to the difficulty of identification. Read more about this mushroom at; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclocybe_aegerita#Gallery
