The top of a mushroom is called the Cap.I think it is the cap, or the dome.cap
The main purpose of a mushrooms cap or"pileus" is to make and disperse the trillions of spores needed to germinate only a few more fungi.

Culipileus is what I'd say. It doesn't appear in any classical writing, needless to say, but I've coined it as a compound of culus (ass) and pileus (hat). Or if you want to use a full sentence instead, you could say Culum pro pileo habes ('You have (your) ass for a hat'.) Hoc utilem esse spero! (Hope it's useful!)
There are two main parts of a mushroom's body distinguished in everyday language. In the grocery store or cooking, the nontechnical terms are stem and, at the top, a cap or button. Technically, most common mushrooms have a stem (stipe), a cap (pileus), and gills (lamellae).
"Pileous" in English is a rare adjective meaning "made of hair; covered with hair". It is a variant of 'pilose' or 'pilous', all of which are from Latin pilosus, "hairy", from pilus, "a hair".The related Latin word pilleus, sometimes spelled pileus, refers to a close-fitting felt cap shaped like half an egg. It is the source of the English term "pileated". The pileated woodpecker is so called because of the bright red color that caps the top of its otherwise black-and-white body.
High-Level CloudsCloud types include: cirrus and cirrostratus.Mid-Level CloudsCloud types include: altocumulus, altostratus.Low-Level CloudsCloud types include: nimbostratus and stratocumulus.Clouds with Vertical DevelopmentCloud types include: fair weather cumulus and cumulonimbus.Other Cloud TypesCloud types include: contrails, billow clouds, mammatus, orographic and pileus clouds.A:The ten main types of clouds, in order of their usual approximate height above sea level, are cirrus, cirrostratus, cirrocumulus, cumulonimbus, altostratus, altocumulus, cumulus, stratocumulus, nimbostratus, and stratus.
I'm guessing that you meant to type "stratus". Stratus clouds are the lowest forming cloud in the atmosphere (even fog is a type of stratus). They can produce light precipitation. Also those little "pieces" of cloud that you see sometimes are a type of stratus known as stratus fractus. Cumulus form mid-troposphere. And the cumulus family consists of cumulus humilis, mediocris, and congestus. Cumulonimbus are in the cumulus family and consist of such formations as cumulonimbus calvus, cumulonimbus with pileus, cumulonimbus capillitus, and cumulonimbus incus. Cirrus clouds are those "thin and wispy" looking clouds way up in the troposphere. They are the highest cloud formation.
"Light, Fluffy clouds" are called cumulus; However, there are different types of cumulus. The smallest formation are called cumulus humilis and they are wider than they are tall. The next biggest formation is called cumulus mediocris and their width and heigth are about the same. Then comes cumulus congestus, they can get pretty big and are usually taller than they are wide. The next stage up is cumulonimbus. They're are many types of cumulonimbus as well. Such as cumulonimbus calvus, cumulonimbus /w/ pileus, and the most mature formation, cumulonimbus incus. (Incus produce the most violet weather.)
