Inkanyezi kaSchmiedel (I-t. I-Geastrum schmidelii) iyikhowe lomndeni wakwaZvezdovikovy. Kubhekwa njengevelakancane, kepha isikhunta esisabalele. Inomumo wenkanyezi ongajwayelekile, etholakala kuwo wonke amakhowe alo mndeni. Emibuthanweni yesayensi, ibizwa ngokuthi inkanyezi encane yomhlaba.
Lolu hlobo luyingxenye yesikhunta - ama-saprotrophs, akwazi ukukhula ngempumelelo kokubili emhlabathini wasogwadule nasezinsalela zehlathi ezibolayo.
Umzimba othelayo wesikhunta, omncane ngosayizi, ufinyelela amasentimitha ayisishiyagalombili ububanzi. Inembobo phezulu kanye nesiqu esifushane. Uma ingavuliwe, umzimba wamakhowe amancane unomumo oyindilinga. I-spore powder ebonakala ngesikhathi sokuqhakaza okusebenzayo inombala onsundu. Imizimba yamakhowe ezithelo ivamise ukudlula ubusika ngempumelelo futhi iqhubeke kuze kube unyaka olandelayo.
Uma uthi nhlá, leli khowa liyamangalisa ukuthi i-starfish ka-Schmiedel ihlezi, njengokungathi, phezu kwesisekelo esimise okwenkanyezi, sizungezwe amacembe acijile.
Isiqongo esisebenzayo se-fruiting senzeka ekupheleni kwehlobo nasekuqaleni kwekwindla.
Indawo eyintandokazi ye-Schmiedel's starfish inhlabathi ethambile kanye nodoti wehlathi oxubile. Inhlabathi eyisihlabathi esikhanyayo ibhekwa njengefaneleka ngokukhethekile ukukhula. Indawo yokusabalalisa isikhunta ihlanganisa ingxenye yaseYurophu yeZwe Lethu, i-Altai, amahlathi amakhulu aseSiberia.
Ikhowe linenani elincane lomsoco, kodwa lithakazelisa ngokukhethekile abaqoki bamakhowe abangochwepheshe ngenxa yokuma kwalo kwenkanyezi okungajwayelekile.
Lolu hlobo lwamakhowe lubhekwa njengokudliwayo ngokwemibandela. Kodwa kungcono ukungayisebenzisi. Ubuthi obunzima ngeke butholakale, kodwa ukuphazamiseka komzimba kungase kwenzeke. I-Starfish Schmiedel ayinakho ukunambitheka nokuhogela okukhulu.
