Candy caps will have a strong, sweet distinct scent and are darker orange than these. These look more like Lactarius volemus.

Could these be babies? They did not smell like much of anything. There were some bigger ones -- more vase shaped. I thought there were false chanterelles. The color was duller more tan/ brown in color. They smelled really awful and had lots of beetles in them. Are those the same Lactarius volemus or a different type? It seems that all the really big mushrooms we have found are full of worms and beetles :frown:

These aren't babies. I can't say about the other mushrooms. Bugs gotta eat too...:smile:

OK-- I have more info. I dried them in the oven and I do not smell anything fishy or sweet. It just smells like mushrooms.

The spore print was also white. Paper had brown stains too-- from juice.

I did a little more research and now I think it maybe a lactarius corrugis

Is there other ways to check the ID without actually eating it?

Lactarius corrugis has a felty whitish bloom when young and a dark brownish red cap with corrugations. These look like Lactarius volemus to me. The brown stain on the paper is from the "milk".
