First one could be a Cortinarius species I guess.  :shrug:

thank you. yes there were several Amanita rubescens (what i believe to be....) in the same area.









I suspect these may be the host of this "alien" parasite. i failed to mention the white residue and powder that was rubbing off on the grass and leaves around it.

That would be the mushroom's spores. And this Amanita doesn't have anything to do with the Hypomyces infestation. Hypomyces is an independent parasitic fungus.

1 Entoloma
2 Hypomyces hyalinus
3 Amanita amerirubescens...what H. hyalinus likes to eat.:thumbup:

You think?  The print looks more rusty brown to me than pink, and I was leaning towards mycorrhizal.

absolutely agree with two and three. I'm still not sure about #1. Some fo the characteristics are in line with what i've been reading about Cortinarius(especially the spore print), but i've not been able to find a specific species that looks like the one i found. the spore print is definately rusty brown/reddish. I've done a lot of painting and the first color that came to mind when i did the print was sienna, but i wasn't sure how many people would be familiar with that color.:wink:
thanks for the help so far. again, i apologize for the photo quality. I have a 35mm with a zoom, but i'm leary about the processing of the film. I will have better pictures of other species when i have access to a friend's digital SLR.

I'm not convinced the first ones are all the same species.

that is possible. the spore prints had the same color. #1, 1a were found just on the other side of a stone wall near the Amanita amerirubescens. It's not possible that 1a is a young Amanita is it? no ring on stipe....

I think the first 3 are probably Entoloma or if there is wood under that moss, Pluteus. Gill shots are very important, though.

The spore print color seems to rule out Entoloma as well as Pluteus.  The OP says it is rusty brown/reddish, and that's what the pic looks like to me also.

Which is why I suspect more than one species. The little cap in that picture looks like it could be an Inocybe. :shrug:

The spore print color isn't brown enough for Inocybe. It looks pink to me and the gills aren't obviously free so....Entoloma. Plus the mushroom looks like an Entoloma.

both 1 and 1a were found singly and not in clusters. 1 was a distance from 1a. the whole area where found consists of rotting wood covered by moss. the profile of 1 is what i thought would be helpful since it is so pronounced. i've looked at some pictures online of the possible species and some do look similar but nothing exact. I'm sure i can find another another time when i have the better camera. If so, i will post better pictures of the gills and stem. BTW the stems were hollow and wet.
Looking at the spore print under simulated day light, it is imho definately not pink. definately rusty/chocolate brown. the gills on 1a were most certainly unattached to the stem.

I agree with you on Entoloma, Bob. That was my initial reaction when I saw the habitat and that distinctive cap shape. I just wanted to see the gills, is all.

As for the colour, I've never printed an Inocybe. The white balance is way off, in any case, so it's all much of a muchness.

There's nothing chocolatey about that spore prink. It doesn't look pink to you, but that's what a "pink" spore print looks like. A very faint print would look more pink. Yours is nice and dark, so the other hues (brown) show up better.

ok. seems like some consensus here. any possibility of an exact match? I don't have any literature yet. I plan on getting a book for my region soon. thanks for the replies. :thumbup:

It kinda looks like Entoloma strictius...kinda.
