I still haven't found any at all, and I'm pretty sure I've been looking in good habitats. Pretty lame. I was going to go again today but it hasn't stopped raining.

I've been seeing Devil's Urns around quite a bit the past week in GA and I read somewhere that they're an indicator of Morels to come. I would like to find some I never have before.

I thought so to - its the first time we have found it.
The second Pluteus is pretty cool too. I think it is Pluteus petasatus - another one we hadn't found before. The only problem is the season is listed as summer and fall.
7.2-8.8 x 4.8-5.5
Pleurocystidia
The spores are to big to be cervinus. They are clustered on woodchips, have a slightly enlarged stem base, and the gills remain white in mature specimens - this all points to petasatus.

Congratulations on your find. No....I take that back.You guys suck.Lived in NC all my life and have never found any morels.
What section of the state did you find'em in? The mountains,piedmont or coastal plain? Thanks for posting the pics.It gives me some hope that I may find some.

Can't wait until I start seeing some fungus.
Neat Polyporus by the way.
Oh and I was wondering.... Where did you get your reticle?

Appreciate it
We have eaten all the ones we picked. Been keeping the recipe simple: olive oil and a little garlic powder.

Honestly, no... I just spent like 5 minutes looking at that damn pic and I could barely find the 4th. But no 5th..
Good stuff Thinker!

Yeah, I kind of made that assumption based on your previous posts of recent. Congrats to the both of y'all on the wonderful finds and much thanks again for guiding me closer to treasure .

My microscope's eyepiece mounting size is 23mm so I guess I can't use any of those. (unless I went with the 20mm, but I don't know if you can use a smaller size reticle and still have it measure correctly.) I guess I'll have to go with amscope's reticle. http://store.amscope.com/ep10x23r.html (Do you think this one would get the job done?) I'd prefer to get a grid but I don't believe Amscope offers that style in a 23mm size.
