Agrocbe ctylindraces Fungi mushroom belongs to white rot fungi. Cultivated commercially used in Chinse cooking. Some can be poisonous to humans.

I don't know about that one, but they can eat the ones that are safe for human consumption. This should only be a very small percentage of the overall diet.

Be aware that even mycologists sometimes have a tough time identifying one mushroom species from another. There are many look-a-likes where one is harmless and the other is deadly toxic. Not something I'd mess around with.

Thank you. I will not give to them since I'm not sure.
