Other Identified Special Species of Lingzhi mushroom:(27).Ganoderma sichuanense.
Botanical description: Ganoderma sichuanense J.D. Zhao & X.Q. Zhang is a fungus of the Ganodermataceae or Polyporaceae family and Ganoderma genus, it is commonly known as Sichuan Ganoderma, or Sichuan LingZhi. The basidiocarp (fruiting body) is annual, petiolate, suberinite to ligneous. The pileus (cap) is nearly fan-shaped or semicircle (semicircular), the base is attenuated and forms a stalk base, 10 × 19 cm, thickness is 0.5–1 cm, the surface is puce (purple-brown), dark brown, stained chestnut-brown to light reddish brown, slightly glossy, sags and crests, has conspicuous vertical wrinkles, composes big rumples, verrucules and galls; irregular edges, blunt, sometimes overlapping; the context is obvious in stratification, and the upper layer is whitish or wood color, the part near the fungus tube is often pale brown or nearly brown, 1.2–2 mm long; fungus tube is 5–18 mm long, hazel (pale brown) to brown. The pore surface is the same color as the fungus tube or darker; the tube orifice is complete, 4–5 per mm. The prosthecae is lateral, 1–2 cm in diameter, length is 3–10 cm, pitch black or puce (purple-brown), with a strong lacquer-like luster.
The husk structure is typical sporiferous layer type, hazel (pale brown) to brown, compositive hyphae are clavate, the tip is enlarged or fusiform (spindle-shaped), usually the width is 6–7 μm, length is 25–30 μm.
The mycelial system is a three-body type: generative hypha is transparent, leptodermous (thin wall), 4–5 μm in diameter; skeletal hyphae are nearly colorless to flavotestaceous (fawn color), pachypleurous (thick-walled) to farctate, has arborizations (dendritic branching), skeletal part is 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), and is ramificate, 1.0–1.6 μm in diameter.
The basidiospores are oval (egg-shaped) or long oval, sometimes the apical end is truncated, double wall, the outer wall is colorless and transparent, smooth, the inner wall is flavotestaceous (fawn color) to sandy beige(light brown), and has spinules, 7.4–9.5 × 5–7 μm.
Ecological Environment: Ganoderma sichuanense J.D. Zhao&X.Q.Zhang grows in mountains and forest. This species is mainly distributed in Bawangling of Hainan province, Dukou of Sichuan province, Ceheng and Jianhe of Guizhou province, China.
