Ganoderma lucidum (Glänzender Lackporling)
Ganoderma lucidum, commonly known as the shiny lacquer polypore or "Reishi", is a perennial bracket fungus from the family Ganodermataceae. It typically grows on dead or weakened hardwoods, especially oak and beech, and as a white-rot fungus it plays an important role in the decomposition of lignin and cellulose. Its fruiting bodies are characterized by a hard, shelf-like form with a dark reddish-brown, varnished surface and a distinctly white growth margin. In traditional East Asian medicine, Ganoderma lucidum has been highly valued for over 2000 years and is often referred to as the "mushroom of immortality".
