Other Identified Special Species of Lingzhi mushroom:(44).Ganoderma parviungulatum.
Botanical description: Ganoderma parviungulatum J.D.Zhao et X.Q.Zhang is a fungus of the Ganodermataceae or Polyporaceae family and Ganoderma genus, it is commonly known as Ganoderma parviungulatum, Small Horsehoof Ganoderma, Small Horseshoe Ganoderma or Xiao Mati LingZhi. The basidiocarp (fruiting body) is annual, petiolate, suberinite or ligneous. The pileus (cap) is small horseshoe-shaped (small U-shaped) or slightly flattened, hanging on the tip of two fork branches of the prosthecae, like two horseshoes, 1–1.5 × 1–2.5 cm, the thickness is 7–10 mm, the surface is puce (purple-brown), deep reddish brown, has sparse concentric ring grooves, and lacquer-like luster; margin is slightly involute (rolled inward), so that the pore surface shrinks inward and becomes small; the context is brown, thickness is 1.5–3 mm. The fungus tube is up to 7 mm long, stratification is inconspicuous, and the same color as the context; the pore surface is hazel (pale brown) to brown; the tube orifice is orbicular, the wall of tube is thick, small ostioles, 6–7 per mm. The prosthecae is dorsiferous or nearly pleurogenous, sometimes the tip has bifurcated branches, is curved, 3.5–15 cm long, 0.3–0.7 cm in diameter, and is the same color as the pileus (cap), has a lacquer-like luster.
The husk structure is a sporiferous layer type, hazel (pale brown) to brown, compositive hyphae are clavate, the enlarged tip is usually 5.0–7.0 μm wide, and the length is 18–25 μm.
The mycelial system is three-body type: generative hyphae are transparent, leptodermous (thin wall), 2.3–3.5 μm in diameter; skeletal hyphae are fawn color (flavotestaceous), pachypleurous (thick-walled) to farctate, have arborizations (dendritic branching), skeletal part is 3.5–4.5 μm in dry diameter, flagelliform colorless binding hypha is formed at the end tip of branches; binding hypha is colorless, pachypleurous (thick wall), 1–2 μm in diameter.
The basidiospores are oval (egg-shaped), long oval, or elliptical shape, double wall, the outer wall is colorless and transparent, smooth, the inner wall has spinules, fawn color (flavotestaceous), 8–9.7 × 4.5–6.1 μm.
Ecological Environment: Ganoderma parviungulatum J.D.Zhao et X.Q.Zhang grows in mountains and forests. Geographical distribution: This species is mainly distributed in Bawangling, Haikou of Hainan province. Worldwide, it is distributed in China.
