EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts the Earthball, Scleroderma vulgare var. verrucosum, also known as the Earthstar or Geaster fornicatus, as it was illustrated in Leon Dufour's Atlas des Champignons Comestibles et Veneneux (1891). A significant work in the history of mycology, Dufour's atlas was one of the most comprehensive and accurate records of edible and poisonous mushrooms available during the late 19th century. The Earthball is a unique and intriguing fungus, characterized by its spherical shape and distinctive surface covered in small, raised warts. These warts contain tiny pores that release a white, sticky substance when the fungus is bruised or wet. The Earthball grows in clusters, often forming large, irregular mounds in wooded areas. Despite its unusual appearance, the Earthball is not considered a culinary delicacy and is generally not eaten due to its bitter taste and potential for causing gastrointestinal distress. However, in some parts of Europe, it has been used traditionally for medicinal purposes, particularly as a treatment for skin conditions. This beautiful chromolithograph not only showcases the intricacies of the Earthball's structure but also highlights the importance of historical records in the study of mycology. Dufour's Atlas des Champignons Comestibles et Veneneux remains an essential reference for mycologists and mushroom enthusiasts alike, providing a window into the past and a foundation for our modern understanding of the fascinating world of fungi.
