Did you know... that "bleeding tooth fungus" is a member of the woody toothed fungus genus Hydnellum (example pictured)?

Would it be good to add something about where these fungi are found? And the same in the articles about species? —JerryFriedman (Talk) 18:33, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes it would. Damn hard to find accurate material on ranges of fungi compared with birds, even dinosaurs etc. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 03:40, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping bits of grass and vegetation around them.~~ ~~- strange construction - the "envelop" and "around them" go abit oddly. how about "The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping bits of nearby grass and vegetation."?~~

That's better, changed. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

One of the better-known species is the unusual pinkish-white species Hydnellum peckii, also known as "strawberries and cream" or as the "bleeding tooth fungus" due to the red droplets that appear on the pinkish or whitish fruitbodies. ~~- I'd remove second "species"~~

Done. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~link stipe at first instance~~

Done. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~In 1981, however, Walter Jülich emended Donk's concept, adding Hydnellum and Sarcodon~~ ~~- a reason would be good to add here~~

Paragraph expanded and reason added. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~...the eastern Tropics~~ ~~- link or explain~~

Changed to tropical Asia. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Otherwise~~ looks pretty good. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:18, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reviewing! I may take to FAC sometime after I get a hold of a couple more references and fill in the species redlinks, so any further suggestions are welcome. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok - will think on it. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 07:54, 8 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
