EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Coral Fungus, Clavaria dichotoma, also known as the white coral fungus or dichotomous coral fungus. The image is part of Fritz Leuba's seminal work, "Edible and Poisonous Mushrooms," published in Neuchatel, Switzerland, in 1890. Leuba, a mycologist and artist from Switzerland, meticulously documented and illustrated various fungi species in this comprehensive tome. The Coral Fungus, Clavaria dichotoma, is a unique and intriguing fungus, characterized by its branching, coral-like structure. It is a saprophytic fungus, meaning it obtains its nutrients by decomposing organic matter. Despite its striking appearance, this fungus is not considered edible. However, another fungus, Clavulina cinerea, which resembles the Coral Fungus, is edible and is sometimes referred to as the "Wood ear fungus" or "Wood ear." The chromolithograph, produced using the lithographic printing technique, showcases the Coral Fungus in exquisite detail. The vibrant colors and intricate textures bring the fungus to life, making it a fascinating addition to any mycology or natural history collection. The historical significance of this illustration lies in its contribution to the scientific understanding of fungi and their classification during the late 19th century. Fritz Leuba's work remains an essential reference for mycologists and enthusiasts alike, providing a window into the rich and diverse world of fungi.
