Difference between Lepiota and Mushroom

Lepiota vs. Mushroom

Lepiota is a genus of gilled mushrooms in the family Agaricaceae. A mushroom, or toadstool, is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source.

Agaric

An agaric is a type of mushroom fungus fruiting body characterized by the presence of a pileus (cap) that is clearly differentiated from the stipe (stalk), with lamellae (gills) on the underside of the pileus.
