I love the microscopic shots. A little bigger and they would really interesting FPC candidates. Review to follow soon. J Milburn (talk) 12:17, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
- The lead's a little short, given the length of the article.
- Perhaps "autumn" instead of "fall"? The latter isn't used in Britain or Ireland, and so is unfamiliar to us! (US English is appropriate, so if you prefer fall, feel free to keep it.)
- Calvatia caelata and Scleroderma aurantium redirect to different names
- "some authorities sink it into the" Is "sink" a technical term? I'd say "lump", but maybe that's more common in the philosophy of biology than among practicing biologists.
- I've switched it to lump (with a link to Lumpers and splitters–didn't know we had this article). Sasata (talk) 21:45, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
- What does "top-shaped" mean?
- "epispore" and "pedicel" are jargony
Generally very good. Sources and images are appropriate. The writing threw me a little in places, but it's certainly OK for GA purposes! As a general note, though, I think the description would be difficult to follow for readers unfamiliar with fungi. I made some fixes- please check that you're happy with them.
