Unidentified Bright Orange mush
    #19007637 - 10/21/13 09:36 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hi all,

I need some help with id'ing a mushroom. A few weeks ago i put some (horse) manure on my lawn. The last few days we've been experiencing quite a lot of rain. This morning I noticed 2 brightly coloured mushrooms that popped up. I live in South Africa, so we've entered spring over here.

Habitat:
Where does it grow?  On my lawn
What does it grow on? Horse manure (among others)

Gills:
The gills are white (see photo)

** After leaving them over night, the gills went a darker colour (picture added)

Stem:
About 7cm long, roughly 1cm in diameter. Colour is similar to the cap and hollow.

Cap:
The caps are roughly 2.5cm in diameter and deep orange. I've attached a photo with a ruler to make sizing easy.

Spore print color:
Busy getting the spore print. Will update tomorrow.

** Spore print is light brown. Strangely, only one of the 2 left a print.

Bruising:
Can't see any bruising on the stem. I'll bruise the caps after getting the spore prints.

** No bruising on the caps, but they seem to have 3 layers. A thin outer layer that is the bright orange. Then a little thicker white inner layer (no more than 2mm), then a usual brown mushroom colour (probably the gills).

Other information:
Smells like normal button mushrooms...

It could be Pholiota tuberculosa :shrug:

I thought Pholiota too but that's just a guess at best.

I'm sure a T.I will chime in.

I'm thinking Cystoderma species maybe.
Op,you should make a spore print.

Thanks for all the feedback. Initially I also thought Pholiota from what I could find on the Internet.

As I stated in my original post, I'm currently collecting the prints. Will check in about 2 hrs if there's anything, else I'll leave it till tomorrow.

I've got them on different coloured sheets in case the prints are white.

tuberculosa because they've been found on manure here and then and close to white gills when young. Also related to button mushrooms.
Can't go as far as determining them though. It's south africa.

It's fine.

I was going to say Cystoderma amianthinum but it doesn't seem quite right.

I don't think it's a Cystoderma species.

No spores after 3hrs. Guess they were a bit young. I'll leave them over night and report back (it's 19:15 here)

Spore print white?    Free gill attachment?    Let us know what color the gills are in the morning.    Is it more powdery or more scaly?

At the moment it's a combo of both. Orange powder rubs off with handling, but there are also scaly bits that fall off (check the last picture; allthough not very clear).

I've updated my original post with more info. To make the new info easier to find, i added ** in front of it. I also added a new photo of the spore print and gills.

Flammulaster species is a good possibility given the brown print.
I think RD was correct.

Flammulaster does not have free gill attachment.  Consider Agaricus crocopeplus and related species.
