Pinch the stem and looking for blue or purple bruising is usually a good field test for certain attributes.
 That doesn't ID them it just means they probably have certain attributes which narrows it down. |

That's my dumb simplification and probably not scientific. The spiderweb structure (mycelium) you'll see in dirt is the The things fungus make possible and the evolution of them are pretty mind blowing. Picture life without bread, cheese, alcohol, or a large amount of medicines. They're underappreciated.

I searched deadliest mushrooms. These look harmless enough (but will kill you dead if eaten):  Conocybe filaris  Webcap  Deadly daperling |

Quote HistoryQuoted: These are great pics, but it is a really hard group. Attached gills with pink spores, on the ground. Some Entoloma and a good possibility to make you sick (muscarine/PLS). Entoloma abortiva is very similar (and good) but I need to see it in real life, and it helps a lot if you find the aborted honey mushrooms with it.

Oh cool. A mushroom thread. My sister sent me this pic recently from the Canton, TX area. Sorry, no pic of the underside. Is it a psilocybin or poisonous? I looked on shoomery.org, but wasn't sure. It's like the ARFCOM of mushrooms. I'm not joining another forum to ask them.

I have seen this a lot in the fungus game(on the ground, not on trees). Makes me think Im crazy. Either, "I swear they were here" or "Where the hell did these come from"... I enjoy it as much as hunting. Less blood & MUCH easier to get out of the woods. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The hole through it is from something that ate it up or something environmental. It is a milk cap for sure in the genus Lactarius - you can see the latex in the second pic as little white drops exuding from the gills. Zonate orange/buff cap with small pits (scrobiculation) on the stalk, distant gills. The question is if the latex changed to a more yellow color when exposed or whether it is acrid (peppery). Best guess it is close to Lactarius zonarius (a European name with NA relatives poorly sorted out).

Your local grocery store will have a fantastic selection of perfectly safe, delicious mushrooms both fresh and dried, whole or sliced and generally at least 3 or 4 different varieties.
Why the fuck do people insist on risking wild mushrooms? It keeps coming up over and over. Just get some from the store and enjoy. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: There are NO general rules for eating gilled mushrooms. You have to know the species. Just say, "the fact it has gills is a good sign not to eat it" unless you know much much more than stuff about rings. Boletes, chanterelles, polypores, puffballs etc. are where to start. That’s not a general rule for eating. That’s a general rule for not eating. If you see a ring on the base of the stem and a ring where the stem joins the cap, you should presume the mushroom is poisonous. There are non-poisonous mushrooms that have those traits; but that’s like betting against the house in Vegas. |

The problem with the deadly ones is that symptoms don't appear until after the mushroom is digested. It's too late before you know it.

Quote HistoryQuoted: You can go wrong quickly with mushrooms. I know of at least two professors of mycology who permanently screwed their kidneys. I stick to things like morels or boletes. Identifying gilled mushrooms is the hardest and you have to work them from the bottom up until you have a really broad knowledge of all of them (poisonous, edible, and not edible), then work back down to good safe edibles. It is a science though and there is absolutely no reason to screw it up. |
