A few quick thoughts-
- "in Traditional Chinese medicine" Does the T need to be capitalised?
- Uncapped. Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- "Its color is bright yellow" I think we've talked about this before (and it may have been you picking me up on it); surely, the colour is not bright yellow, the cap is. Equally, a dog's fur is not furry, but the dog is.
- Reworded. Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- "The taste and odor of the flesh has been described variously as indistinct,[3] or bitter tasting with an odor of hickory leaves.[5]" Same thing- how about "Flesh has been described variously as tasting and smelling indistinct,[3] or tasting bitter with an odor of hickory leaves.[5]"
- Done. Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- "Its color is bright yellow." Again, although brightness is a trait of the colour. You could say "Its yellow colouration is bright", but just something like "The stem is bright yellow" would probably be easier.

- "intergrade" is a bit jargony. That said, I like the word, so I'm happy for it to stay if you feel it belongs there.
- I changed to "merges gradually". Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- hemlock is a dablink
- Fixed. Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Worth adding to the edible fungi category? We've also got a Category:Plants used in traditional Chinese medicine; think it's worth creating one for fungi?
- Sure – Category:Fungi used in traditional Chinese medicine; now needs populating. Added edible fungi cat too. Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
Great pictures, sources are fine, quick Googling around reveals nothing obvious missing. It's got an impressive veil! J Milburn (talk) 22:17, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
- Not as impressive as Phallus indusiatus, but yeah, it's hefty. Thanks! Sasata (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
- Great stuff; I've promoted. J Milburn (talk) 16:12, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
