Pleurotus ostreatus

Gilled fungi with laterally-attached fruiting bodies are classified as pleurotoid ( Gr.: pleurē + ōtos + -oid, literally "side-ear form" or "having the likeness of Pleurotus ssp."). Pleurotoid fungi are typically wood-decay fungi and are found on dead and dying trees and coarse woody debris. The pleurotoid form is polyphyletic, having evolved a number of times within the Basidiomycota. [1] Many species of pleurotoid fungi are commonly referred to as "oyster" mushrooms. [2] Laterally-attached fungi with pores rather than gills are referred to as bracket fungi.

Genera
