Chicken from the woods or from the city????? ????
The season for Laetiporus sulphureus (Bull.) Murrill has started. These delicious arboreal edible fungi are known as chicken of the woods due to their orange-yellow color and the taste reminiscent of poultry. It is advisable to collect fruit bodies that are neither too young nor too old.
Interestingly, chicken of the woods often appear in synanthropic habitats such as parks, gardens, and trees along roadsides. This serves as an excellent example of a species that has adapted to urban conditions.
In the ‘city map’ of Łódź, many trees affected by Laetiporus sulphureus have been observed. In future posts, I will continue discussing the topic of urban fungi, which is crucial in managing urban greenery. Thanks to the extensive research conducted by Professor Ławrynowicz from the University of Łódź, Łódź can proudly claim to be one of the most extensively studied cities in Europe regarding the occurrence of macrofungi.
