Gym ID, please
    #15292794 -

I found these growing in some hardwood mulch at my folks house on the way out. They were a bit more brighter in color more orange-ish when picked, but I had a 3 hour drive to get home, and they look a little different. Some of the sample were already a bit dried out at the time of the picking. Rust dust was everywhere, and can be seen coating some of the caps in atleast one of my pics... I've been hopeful to find some active gyms before the season was out...  We'll see. TI?


Habitat:
Hardwood mulch bed at parent house.

Gills:
orange/yellow similar in color to cap

Stem:
2" length average and about 1/4 or less diameter not hollow...fibrous

Cap:
1-3 inch diam was a brighter orange at time of pick, now fading to a rusty orange brown.

Spore print color:
rust dust was everywhere...

Bruising:
no visible bruising,

Other information:
the smell reminds me of a cut radish...the taste is unpleasant...I wouldn't say "chemical", but close. Actually almost reminds me of a strong radish but bitter at the back of the throat. I'm not sure what is defined as bitter with gyms, but  Almost a peppery feeling left to the tip of my tongue....
