Agaricus braendlei is a common North American species of gilled mushroom closely related to the well known, typically old world species, A. campestris.[2] Both species are popular edibles characterized by white, slightly furry caps, bright pink gills which turn to chocolate brown as the spore mature, and no staining reaction when bruised or scratched.[citation needed] Like most Agaricus species, this species has a ring on the stalk and no volva.[citation needed]
