Hydnellum concrescens

agaricomycetes | inedible mushrooms


Hydnellum concrescens is an inedible fungus, commonly known as the zoned hydnellum or zoned tooth fungus. As with other tooth fungi, the spores are produced on spines on the underside of the cap, rather than gills. It has a funnel-shaped cap, typically between 2 and 7 cm (0.8-2.8 in) in diameter, which has characteristic concentric zones of color. The cap may also have radial ridges extending from the center to the margins. The spines are pink in young specimens, but turn brown with age.

Giovanni Andrea Bussi


Giovanni Andrea Bussi (1417–1475), also Giovan de' Bussi or Joannes Andreae, was an Italian Renaissance humanist and the Bishop of Aleria (from 1469).

Bussi was a Platonist and a friend of Nicholas Cusanus and Johannes Bessarion, in whose philosophical circle he moved. From 1458 to 1464 he had served Cusanus as a secretary at Rome, where he helped his master edit a ninth-century manuscript of Apuleius.Julia Haig Gaisser, The Fortunes of Apuleius and the Golden Ass: A Study in Transmission and Reception (Princeont: Princeton University Press, 2008), pp. 160–62. From its foundation in 1465 Bussi was the chief editor and prototypographer for the printing house of Conrad Sweynheym and Arnold Pannartz at Subiaco. He also heaped praise on Cusanus and Bessarion and used his dedicatory preface to Apuleius to laud Bessarion's Defensio Platonis. He also incorporated an edition of Alcinous translated by Pietro Balbi into his printing of Apuleius. The preface to this version evoked a correspondence with George of Trebizond and his son Andreas. Andreas attacked Bussi and Bessarion in a letter entitled Platonis Accusatio and Bussi directed a response to Andreas in the preface to his edition of Strabo. The debate lasted until 1472.
