MycoMorphBoxes depict 7 mycological characteristics that are often useful in identifying mushrooms. The template is given as a quick way to display information about mushrooms, and to enable quick comparison between them.
Usage
Copy the following code into the article you want to add a MycoMorphBox to, and then add the parameters:
{{ mycomorphbox
| name =
| hymeniumType =
| capShape =
| whichGills =
| stipeCharacter =
| sporePrintColor =
| ecologicalType =
| howEdible =
}}
Parameters
MycoMorphBoxes have 8 basic parameters:
| name | hymeniumType | capShape | whichGills | stipeCharacter | sporePrintColor | ecologicalType | howEdible |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name of the mushroom. | Type of spore-bearing surface: gills, pores, et cetera. | Descriptor of the general shape of the cap. | Descriptor of how the hymenium attaches to the stem. Applies even to ridged, toothed and pored species, despite parameter name. | Indicates if a universal or partial veil is present. | Color of the spore print. | Indicates how the mushroom obtains nutrients. | Indicates whether the mushroom is edible or poisonous. |
| {{{name}}} |

Example
These basic parameters can be specified in any order, but should be typed exactly as above. For example:
Phlebopus marginatus | |
|---|---|
 | Gills on hymenium |
 | Cap is infundibuliform |
 | Hymenium is seceding |
 | Lacks a stipe |
 | Spore print is buff to cream |
 | Ecology is mycorrhizal |
 | Edibility is unknown |
{{ mycomorphbox
| name = Phlebopus marginatus
| whichGills = seceding
| capShape = infundibuliform
| hymeniumType = gills
| stipeCharacter = NA
| ecologicalType = mycorrhizal
| sporePrintColor = buff
| sporePrintColor2 = cream
| howEdible = unknown
}}
Generates the mycomorphbox at right:
All parameters other than name and hymeniumType can now be specified with a secondary characteristic. For example, a mushroom might appear with both convex and flat caps at maturity, this can be indicated in the mycomorphbox by adding a second capShape parameter, simply by repeating the parameter name followed by the numeral 2:
|capShape=flat
|capShape2=convex
This can be done with the following parameters: capShape, whichGills, stipeCharacter, sporePrintColor, ecologicalType, howEdible.
