shaggy ink cap
shaggy ink cap The common name for the fruit body of Coprinus comatus. The cap is initially white, with white or brownish scales, and initially oval, later becoming bell-shaped. It undergoes autodigestion (autolysis), dissolving from the edges into an inky-black fluid. The stipe bears a membranaceous, movable ring. It is common in fields, on grass banks, etc., often growing in clusters. It is edible when young.
