单词 russula
释义

russula

/ˈrʌsələ /
noun
A widespread woodland toadstool that typically has a brightly coloured flattened cap and a white stem and gills.
  • Genus Russula, family Russulaceae, class Hymenomycetes: numerous species. See also sickener (sense 2).
Most russulas are of medium size, up to 10 cm across the cap, which in young specimens is convex but later acquires a depression in the centre....
  • Slowly, I learn to sniff the nuances: funnel caps have a hint of wet dog; truffle-like earthballs have a tang of burnt rubber; crab russula is redolent of shellfish; yellow sulphur mushrooms remind me of the Thames on a hot day.

Origin

Modern Latin, from Latin russus 'red' (because many, such as the sickener, have a red cap).
