The Quaker loves an ample brim,
A hat that bows to no salaam;
And dear the beaver is to him
As if it never made a dam.

Fungi Structures

Annulus


1682
The annulus or ring is a band or bands of tissue usually dervided from the partial or inner veil that girdles the stem either near the cap (superior) centrally, or near the base (inferior)

Notched gills


1578
The gills of this fungus are attached directly to the stipe but there appears to be a notch taken out of the top of each one when it meets the stipe.

Veil


106
Outer layer of usually thin tissue that protects the developing fruit body of some mushroom like fungi. The veil can extend from the cap edge to the top of the stem (partial) or envelop the entire fruiting body (universal).

Campanulate cap


1367
Campanulate cap

Cylindrical cap


247
Cylindrical cap

Adnate gills


1340
Gills are attached 90 degrees to the stipe

Appendiculate margin


93
Appendiculate is a term used to desribe the tissue overhanging the edge of the cap.

Crenate margin
