Description
The group agrocybe includes fungi mostly found on wood or in grassy areas. Commonly seen in temperate regions, they often appear in clusters. They have a characteristic cap that can range from light tan to brown and typically feature a veil that covers the gills when young. One interesting aspect is that agrocybe often fruit in the spring and summer, differing from many other fungi that prefer the fall.
