These detailed Chromolithographs by Adalbert Ricken depict various species of the genus Tricholoma, illustrating the intricate morphology of mushroom caps, gills, stems, and spores. Each specimen is rendered with scientific precision and aesthetic refinement, reflecting Ricken commitment to the early Linnaean taxonomy and natural history. These plates serve as important visual references in the study of fungi from the late 18th century.

Adalbert Ricken (1851–1921) was a German Franciscan friar and mycologist known for his contributions to fungal classification in Central Europe. His major work, Die Blätterpilze Deutschlands, remains a key reference in the study of agarics. Ricken’s legacy lies in his rigorous documentation and taxonomic clarity, bridging ecclesiastical discipline with scientific inquiry.
