Official Fall 2009 Winter 2010 San Francisco, Bay Area Thread. Post your finds here!
    #11086340 - 09/18/09 10:10 PM (2 months, 1 day ago)

NOTE: this thread is for confirmed active(and some edible) mushrooms, this is not a thread for identification. if you need an ID please start your own thread and fill out an ID template.

Didn't see one of these up yet and it seems theres been lots of actives out around the bay despite the heat and lack of rain.
They may not be cyans but they are active, and popping up all over the place, usually in irrigated areas, but sometimes not.

Season definitely hasn't started full-throttle yet.

I don't particularly hunt down these kinds of mushrooms, but its impossible to avoid seeing them just about about everywhere ive been.

im gonna start this off with the most widely distributed active mushroom in north america:


Panaeolus cinctulus

and some unidentified Gymnopilus sp:


and heres some possible Panaeolopsis sp which are probably active as well:



Anyone else in the bay having as many photo opportunities?

Nice! 

Poisonous Hebeloma:




Been finding some lawn mushrooms too, maybe I'll go on a little walk today.  So damn windy though.  I've seen some Agaricus popping up too.  What kind of temps do the stuntzii like?

yeah Hebeloma looks right, the short stem and its texture really make it stand out as so.

the wind was insane today, I lost my hat twice, fall is here!
http://www.ssd.noaa. ;     gov/goes/west/nepac/loop-wv.html (remove the long spaces)
were starting to get some cold fronts from the arctic currents to the north and the hotter air is being pushed south-easternly.


Agaricus?!?!?! AHHHH!!!!



If I see another cluster of Agaricus californicus im gonna lose it :lol:

Quote:

Reported from California as far south as Santa Cruz, but extremely rare in California.



not sure about exact temps, but I know that lawn Panaeolus always fruit first, then Stuntzii, then winter hits and we get Ps.Cyans and horse dung Panaeolus.

I think this year is gonna prove to be pretty crazy with the morels and black trumpets!

Whens the earliest you have found the manzanita leccinum?

My notes from last season started in December, but I was finding Leccinum before then.

I found a few mushrooms today, possibly some dried Russula.

More Gymns!
the twin stem mutation seems to be quite common, the ones showing darker pigments tend to show a stronger bruising reaction and these are some of the biggest clusters ive ever seen!

that big cluster must weigh like 7+ pounds or more.

yeah they were finally ID'd in another thread
I had the ID down to Gymnopilus luteofolius and Gymnopilus peliolepis which are nearly the same mushroom, and it turns out they were indeed luteofolius.

Spores:

more Panaeolus cinctulus and Gymnopilus sp popping up all over the place, no pics sorry, didnt have it with me when I was out running around.

saw some Leratiomyces ceres on woodchips too though, good indicator that the bay area season is most definitely getting started.

Yeah we should see some rain here on maybe Monday, definitely Tuesday.  Not sure how much or whether it will be enough to fully kick off the season, but I sure hope so!
