Habitat: Where does it grow? Eg. woods, pasture, state, province, country, altitude, etc. What does it grow on? Eg. soil, dung, wood (dead, living, what kind of wood?), etc.
found them in my front yard in mud, has been raining a lot lately, eastern nc Gills: Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc. red with white spots gills white, gold with white flakes white gills
Stem: Length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc.
Cap: Diameter, color, texture, conical/spherical, convex/concave, etc.
Spore print color: Very important!
Bruising: Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills.

Whoa, whoa, there, youngster!
SOME amanitas are edible. You have a TI's opinion, but no blessing for consumption.
Do not eat mushrooms without positive id. Positive ID is much more than a family or species name.
-------------------- "Shrub, 30-90 cm. Leaves 2.5-) 4-9 cm, sessile or amplexicaul, broadly ovate to ovate-oblong, obtuse or rounded to subapiculate or subacute, when crushed not smelling of goats." "The initial quake was a 6.6 but fairly shallow. I felt it as a prolonged up and down vibration followed by a jolt forward and then to the left, like square dancing."

So, a positive id would include at least two names, eh? Like "Amanita muscaria". Then you take that info and plug it into a search engine and see whatcha have.
The "Amanita" family includes the most deadly mushrooms and some that are reportedly tasty. Most if not all of the Russula aren't too tasty and some are toxic. (If I'm off here someone set us straight, 'k?)
NOW, the next time someone sez you got amanitas and russulas whatcha gonna do?
Ya kids scare me.

I don't know what sources you are referring to but such generalities are complete shite.
The destroying angel is an amanita and it is white. I am aware of only one active amanita and it is "dark".
You MUST hav both a family and variety name to do real checking, a family name alone gives you nothing.
Have I got that taxonomy right, folks? Family and variety?

IT? Which one is "IT" that you're boiling? Specificity is important.
Since you're a noob and your pics are not the greatest, you should really hold onto any shrooms in their raw state in case you need to id further or are requested to take better pics. Once it's boiled it's useless for id.
I dunno, dude, are you serious about this or just yankin' my our chain? ;-)

Ya see, the thing is that it's not clear what you've decided is amanita and what you've decided is russula. There appear to be 4 mushrooms there, all different.
Try referring to them as 1-4, going left to right and top to bottom.

Dude, WTF, seriously? Don't consume that amanita without a proper identification to species by a trusted identifier. In all likelihood that is a. pantherina and won't kill you, but even if it is you should do a little more research before you chow down and make sure that a panther trip is even something you want to try. Eating mushrooms that have been identified to genus within a genus that contains everything from the deadly toxic, the hallucinogenic to choice edibles is a good way to get yourself on a transplant list or a refrigerated bed with a fancy toe tag and byline in the local paper. If you're not trolling, you're a complete imbecile.

Just realize that there are hundreds of amanitas, many will kill you, some are good eating, and there are a a few that will get you high, not being mean but it sounded like you were getting ready to chow down on something potentially toxic. This site has a bunch of information on the genus. Stay informed and never eat an unidentified mushroom.
