Mèche: Faisceau de fibrilles appliquées ou retroussées, ornant la surface du chapeau ou du pied. Planche 4 e)
Méchule: Petite mèche.
http://www.cegep-sept-iles.qc.ca/raymondboyer/champignons/Gl...
Tricholoma magnivelare, matsutake, are stocky/squat, white mushrooms with a little brown or grey fibrils on their cap. They have white spores, a cottony veil, and their stipe/stem comes to a pointed at the bottom. Additionally, they have a very unique smell. They smell spicy like radishes, or as David Aurora famously said many years ago: "Red hots and dirty socks."
