Hi guys! I live in central Ohio and decided to go tromping around in the woods behind my house (just in case). I doubt I found anything good but I'm primarily trying to improve my hunting skills by verifying the identities. :smile: All of these were found in the woods (not sure of the type; looks to be mostly deciduous, but there's also some aspen, so it's a mix.) Found growing in the ground near rotting wood and decaying leaves after a rain. The two smallest ones wouldn't produce a print because they kept drying out before they dropped enough spores--any ideas on how to stop this?

Mushroom #1:



Habitat:
Woods (not sure of the type; looks to be mostly deciduous, but there's also some aspen, so it's a mix.) Found growing in the ground near rotting wood and decaying leaves after a rain. I also found some growing on a rotting log of some sort, but couldn't get a decent picture.

Gills:
Dark brown/black, close together.

Stem:
All varying lengths, but thin in diameter, white, smooth

Cap:
All varying in diameter (none bigger than a quarter), reddish brown, smooth, conical

Spore print color:
I can't get one! D: They keep drying out before they drop enough viable spores.

Bruising:
None that I can see.

Guess:
If it's anything, possibly a Gym of some sort.

Mushroom #2:



Habitat:
Woods (not sure of the type; looks to be mostly deciduous, but there's also some aspen, so it's a mix.) Found growing in the ground near rotting wood and decaying leaves after a rain.

Gills:
Light to dark brown, spaced widely apart.

Stem:
All varying lengths, but thin in diameter, cream or light brown?, smooth

Cap:
All varying in diameter (none bigger than a quarter), cream around the edges and brown at the apex, smooth, conical

Spore print color:
I can't get one! D: They keep drying out before they drop enough viable spores.

Bruising:
None that I can see.

Mushroom #3:





Habitat:
Woods (not sure of the type; looks to be mostly deciduous, but there's also some aspen, so it's a mix.) Found growing in the ground a pine tree.

Gills:
White or dark brown (bruising??), spaced closely apart.

Stem:
About four inches, 3/4" in diameter, white, smooth, ringed

Cap:
All varying in diameter (none bigger than a quarter), white around the edges and brown at the center, smooth, flat

Spore print color:
White/cream

Bruising:
None that I can see.

Guess:
I'm guessing this one is an Amanita (the poisonous kinds are common around here), and it might be the same type as the second mushroom?

Other info-
Mushrooms local to my state:
Gymnopilus aeruginosus
Gymnopilus junonius
Gymnopilus luteofolius
Gymnopilus luteus
Panaeolus cinctulus
Pluteus salicinus
Psilocybe caerulipes
Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata


I really doubt I have anything (it'd just be too convenient) but I wanted to work on my identification, so I thought I'd verify. :smile: Thank you!

#1 looks like some kind of Pluteus

pluteus do not have white spore prints

I think they look reminiscent of some amanitas ive seen in the past, and the white spore print matches up

#1 may be a psathyrella

# 1 had no spore color notations in the description...
they look young, and cannot visually confirm spore color through those pics.

was just a rough guess anyhow...

#1 - and they look nothing like any amanitas I have ever seen or read about.
they lack all the features except the fact it has gills on a cap on a stem...
Everything else points far away from amanita.

ahh yess i guess i took your original post out of context since there was no number next to the # sign, automatically assumed u were referring to #3

I was saying the #3 picture looks like an amanita.

Any other votes? I'd like a general consensus before I eat them (although I doubt I will). They're dried now, if you'd like more/better pictures just let me know what you need. I'm just kinda curious as to what is growing around my house--if any of these are active, I've hit the jackpot, lol. Unfortunately, everybody I know has run dry around here, so I have no access until my first batch finishes growing...

1 or 2? The pictures in this link look almost identical to #2. Having looked at pictures of these, I'm guessing this is it. They're identical, unless there are other well-known copycats. These are an inedible species, yes?
