Perhaps explain "Malesia" in the lead, since it is an unfamiliar term that may be mistaken for a misspelling of Malaysia.

I explained it instead in the distribution section. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why not mention the authority for calopus in the body?

Good idea, done. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do we know what the specific name refers to?

My guess is that because the mushroom tends to grow in clusters, stems get pushed away from the center and become bent, but I have not seen a source that says so. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"The cap frequently splits radially part way to the center."—there is probably a clearer way to say this.

Rewritten. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If its edibility is "doubtful", shouldn't the lead say that instead of calling it "inedible"?
"and have apices that are covered with contorted projections that can be slender or obese"—perhaps use "tips" instead of "apices", and "thick" instead of "obese".

Much better. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What are a hypoderm and a tramal body?

Glossed. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"West Coast" is presumably the North American West Coast, but you link to West Coast, a dab page.

Dab fixed. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps give the family or some other ID for Lithocarpus havilandii, so that there is a little more than just a red link.

Done. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"The fungus has been investigated for its ability to decolorize synthetic dyes that are used in the textile, plastics, biomedical and foodstuff industries. The dyes are not readily biodegradable, and when discharged into the environment are persistent and many are toxic."—doesn't this fit better in "Chemistry"?

Yup, moved. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In the distribution, I don't see how an area already bounded by Nova Scotia and North Carolina should be additionally bounded by New York, but if the source says this, I suppose it's fine. Also, shouldn't there be some distribution in Malesia and Turkey?

Just following the source. Added the last two to the dist section. Sasata (talk) 00:00, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
