description Shaggy Parasol Overview
Chlorophyllum rhacodes, commonly called the shaggy parasol, is a large agaric found in Europe and North America. It develops a broad cap covered with brown scales that become more separated as the mushroom expands, creating a shaggy appearance. The gills are initially pale and the stem commonly bears a movable ring. It has traditionally been eaten after cooking, but some people experience gastrointestinal reactions, and it must be distinguished from similar Chlorophyllum species.
