Mushroom ID Please! (Upstate NY)
    #11174635 -

Habitat:
Here is another Mushroom that I found in a fairy ring under apple/crab apple trees in Upstate NY, Oneida County north of Utica, NY. I found this 10/03/09

There is a whole bunch of them, so I hope they are edible! The spore print is developing, hopefully ready tomorrow if a positive ID isn't made by then. Thanks again everyone!

i wish we had more actives to find here in NY. i have found 3 in 4 years of looking. and not 3 patches, just 3  basically individuals
as far as your id i would start off by looking up what mushies make fairy rings then see what climate they live in ...

Do you know any good resources that I could use to narrow down my search?

take pics in its natural habitat, take the spore print on foil, and get some younger specimens as well if possible

to me they look kinda nasty, almost Tricholoma sp or Entoloma sp or something.

I'm leaning toward Clitocybe (some of the all white Clitocybe species are very poisonous, with muscarine) or possibly Leucopaxillus. In general there aren't any good edibles that look like that (I'm not counting white chanterelles - they don't really look quite like that), so you shouldn't bother thinking too much about them in terms of edibility.

Happy mushrooming!

I will third Clitocybe.

As far as separating Clitocybe (most notably in this instance, C. nebularis) from Leucopaxillus (typically L. albissimus), I would refer to David Arora's method of hurling the mushroom against a wall....

If it explodes into a mooshy mess, it is Clitocybe.

If it remains mostly intact, it is Leucopaxillus.

The exception would be an old, rotting Leucopaxillus, or a REALLY hard, solid pitch at a stone, brick or equally hard surface...  In which case you will hear a loud POP, like someone hit a baseball with a bat.

Is this a serious response? throwing a mushroom at a wall doesn't seem scientific at all lol
