Stropharia hornemannii is a species of agaric fungus in the family Strophariaceae. It is found in Europe and North America, where it grows as a saprophyte on rotting conifer wood. The specific epithet hornemannii honors Danish botanist Jens Wilken Hornemann, who made the first scientifically documented collections of the species.[2] Common names for the mushroom include luxuriant ringstalk[3] and lacerated stropharia.[4] It is inedible and may be poisonous.[5]
