Winters' Summer Mushroom Pictures! (Update 7-22-12)
#16323677 - 06/02/12 11:46 PM (11 months, 13 days ago) |

These are from North Carolina, hopefully later on in the month I can post some from Michegan when I go to check out the site of the "Humongous Fungus." Sadly, what I am about to post here, I can't even get to genus with, so any help would be appreciated, they are on MO too! I actually took pictures of a TON of pictures but I am only going to post the super hard ones (well hard for me):
1. This was on very moist soil and wood debris at the edge of a small creek. Also these were from an area where I didn't want to do too much collecting so microscopy is going to be very limited. Size on cap on this one is about 2 cm.
  
2. This one looks really familiar but I just can't place it. Growing on a lichen covered dead branch near a stream, pretty small, this one is only a couple centimeters:
 
3. Yeh thats right, one single blury picture, no gill shot, what-ev.

4. On wood, really really tiny, cap less than 0.5 cm, and then for no reason it just fell apart in pic 2.

5. This one kind of looked like an Infundibulicybe but it was on a moss-covered rotting log? Maybe that's normal?:
 
6. This I thought kind of looked like Suillus but there's no gladular dots and it was not the least bit tacky or viscid? But maybe thats ok?
 
7. This one I am most curious about because it seams like it shouldn't be that hard but for some reason I am not seeing it?!?
  
Thanks for looking

Thanks Gravija!
Full of overexposed blury pics I assume, but yeh I plan on fillinitup! I'm going to go here in a few weeks because I have some inlaws within an hour from there, would be neat if I could post some of the Armillaria gallica!

I wonder how big it was before the glacier. You're coming north and I'm going south in two weeks. Maybe I can find more mushrooms than you for once.

It was really solid and hard, and the inside was completely black if that helps, I thought maybe it was something like D. concentric a but there were no concentric zones.

It looks like the beginning of either coal fungus or maybe a Xylaria???

Yeh, I think Laccaria is good for the first one.

Maybe coal fungus (D. concentrica) looks like that when its young?? Here's the closest thing on MO I could find but it still doesn't look perfect: http://mushroomobserver.org/26441?q=HtUb The wierd thing is I really feel like I have seen this a few times before.
5 was pleasant smelling, kind of floral or fruity. I think Infundibulicybe is possible.
I guess I should post some of the pics that actually turned out decent instead of my blurry not-well-described mystery fungi.
1. Galerina hypnorum
 
2. Lactarius gerardii (thanks for the ID thinker!)
   
3. Xylaria sp.

2 if you have this can you show a cross section? 4 may be Phaeomarasmius or Flammulaster 5 doesnt strike me as Infundibulicybe, more like Clitocybe 6 id say Boletus 7 do you know the spore print color?
love the first Lactarius shot

Thanks thinker, I was told I was not supposed to collect in Joyce Kilmer, but I can't seem to find it in print anywhere and I did't see any signs posted so I don't really know now.

So this ended up being in a genus I'd never heard of.

Used to be a Clitocybe, the common name even though its not that common is Wood Clitocybe, but its Pseudoarmillariella ectypoides!

Cool! Never heard of it before. I would have guessed Lepista.

The high ring zone does remind me of Armillaria, but neeeever would have guessed that genus. Good work!

I don't actually think its related to Armillaria, it used to be a Clitocybe, until someone reevaluated the taxonomy of Omphalina and Clitocybe in light of some molecular data and such, and renamed it . There are a couple of MO observations under this name which kind of surprised me.
Edit: I know no one really cares, but for that one person who is shaking their head at the fact that I didn't recognize Pseudoarmillariella as a Singer name ( Pseudoarmillariella ectypoides (Peck) Singer [as 'ectyloides'], Mycologia 48(5): 725 (1956)), they didn't actually rename it in the 2002 Mycotaxon paper that evaluated the phylogeny of some of the Omphaloid genera, just went back to using the Singer name but it had been going by Omphalina ectypoides (Peck) H.E. Bigelow, Sydowia 35: 46 (1982) most recently according to index fungorum.

I am pretty sure this one is Callistosporium luteo-olivaceum
  because even though the purple rection of spores in KOH was not as purple as I was expecting, I think it is the best fit for a white spored small yellow mushroom on wood,Based on microscopic Spores were 6×4 microns, smooth, broadly elliptical with apiculus, inamyloid, hyaline and gaining an ambiguous purplish hue when mounted in KOH. If anyone has picture of what Callistosporum spores are supposed to look like in KOH that would be really helpful I googled and couldn't find any pictures that showed anything that looked "purple."
This one is Anthracophyllum lateritium
 
And I had definately never heard of this Genus before! I saw Bloodworm had one on MO too! Its actually in the Marasmiaceae family!
