onnis

Onnis is a genus of fungi belonging to the order Agaricales. These mushrooms are characterized by their gilled fruiting bodies, with a cap, stem, and gills. The specific features of onnis species can vary, but they typically possess a hymenium composed of lamellae. Reproduction occurs through the release of spores from these gills.

The exact taxonomic placement and classification of onnis species have been subject to revision as molecular phylogenetic studies have provided new insights into fungal relationships. Historically, some species now placed within or related to onnis might have been classified under different genera. Research continues to refine our understanding of this group.

Onnis species are found in various ecological niches, often associated with decaying organic matter, such as wood or leaf litter. Their ecological role typically involves decomposition, contributing to nutrient cycling within their habitats. Distribution patterns can be widespread, depending on the specific species and environmental conditions. Further research is needed to fully document the ecological significance and geographic ranges of all onnis species. Information regarding their edibility or toxicity is generally species-specific and requires careful identification.
