A mycorrhizal fungus, ME1-1, isolated from an achlorophyllous orchid, Epipogium roseum, was identified as Coprinellus disseminatus (= Coprinus disseminatus) based on characteristics of basidiomata that were artificially induced. Spawn of ME1-1 cultivated on a medium that consisted of sawdust and wheat, sandwiched between two mats of volcanic soils, which was incubated at 20.0 degrees +/- 0.5 degrees C in 80.0%+/- 0.5% relative humidity in the dark. The basidiomata were formed on the soil after 2 months. Morphological and anatomical characteristics of the basidioma mostly accorded with those of Coprinellus disseminatus. We therefore concluded that C. disseminatus is one of the mycobionts of E. roseum.
