Abstract

Surveys were conducted in the bamboo bushes and heap of rotten leaves present beside the canals during June July 2015 in 24 Parganas (N) for searching the mushroom Phallus indusiatus, previously named Dictyophora indusiata. The present investigation is to study the occurrence, ecology and taxonomical description of this mushroom which is medicinally and pharmaceutically important. It has some important socioeconomic effects in China. In India it is also reported from Eastern Ghats, Assam and Santiniketan. The work on ecology, taxonomy, pharmaceutical of Phallus indusiatus is very limited.
