This study were conducted to investigate pin-heading induction and growing temperature of Agaricus brunescens. The temperature for fruit body formation was better at $15^{\circ}C$ than at 18 and $21^{\circ}C$. As the temperature go up to $21^{\circ}C$, the fruit body number was decreased but the fruit body size and weight was increased. Optimal temperature for both pin-heading and growth of Agaricus brunescens was $18^{\circ}C$.
