The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping bits of grass and vegetation around them. - strange construction - the "envelop" and "around them" go abit oddly. how about "The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping bits of nearby grass and vegetation."?

One of the better-known species is the unusual pinkish-white species Hydnellum peckii, also known as "strawberries and cream" or as the "bleeding tooth fungus" due to the red droplets that appear on the pinkish or whitish fruitbodies. - I'd remove second "species"

link stipe at first instance

• Done. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

In 1981, however, Walter Jülich emended Donk's concept, adding Hydnellum and Sarcodon - a reason would be good to add here

• Paragraph expanded and reason added. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

...the eastern Tropics - link or explain

• Changed to tropical Asia. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Otherwise looks pretty good. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:18, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing! I may take to FAC sometime after I get a hold of a couple more references and fill in the species redlinks, so any further suggestions are welcome. Sasata (talk) 06:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
