Stropharia aeruginosa. Stropharia aeruginosa, commonly known as the verdigris agaric, is a medium-sized green, slimy woodland mushroom, found on lawns, mulch and woodland from spring to autumn. The edibility of this mushroom is controversial[1] - some sources claim that it's edible, while others claim it to be poisonous, although effects are little known and its toxic constituents undescribed.

Taxonomy, phylogeny, and naming[edit] Description[edit] Although the edibility or toxicity of the mushroom is not known with certainty, it has been reported to cause "neurological symptoms" in mice, as well as increased levels of blood glucose and decreased blood urea nitrogen.[15] Other biochemical changes reported in mice, after peritoneal injection of fruit body extract, include decreases in the activity of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase and reduced levels of liver glycogen.
In these experiments, values returned to normal six hours after initial injection, suggesting that the poisoning was not serious, and did not affect liver and kidney performance.[16] Similar species[edit] Amanita frostiana Habitat and distribution[edit] Amanita rubrovoltata mushrooms grow in groups on the ground.
