Cortinarius Phoenecius var occidentalis?
    #19072569 - 11/01/13 10:21 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Habitat:
Mixed forest floor.

Gills:
Deep blood red, adnexed, close. Quite possibly the prettiest gills I've seen.
:grin: I've made them my avatar I thought they were so pretty! :grin:



Stem: 3-4 inches long, yellow a brilliant contrast against the gills which reminded me of a blood orange...lol


Cap:
convex to umbonate, light to dark mahogany.



Spore print color:
Still working on it but after a few hours it is starting to look rusty color.

Bruising:
None noticed. After a few hours the stem appears to be bruising a slight brown color.

Other information:
gregarious, very shroomy smelling

Beautiful mushroom PerkySmiles!  I think you nailed it on the ID.

:awethumb:

Edit:  Compare to Cortinarius semisanguineus as well, as they are similar.

Too bad I don't have an ultraviolet light to differentiate between the two...but the cap seems more like that of the phoenecius variation, although without the ultraviolet light it would be nearly impossible to say. Even microscopically they are VERY similar.

Loosely quoted from the Wiki -

"Cortinarius phoeniceus var. occidentalis was renamed to honor Smith in 2012, after molecular analysis revealed that it was genetically different than Cortinarius phoeniceus. It is found in North America."

Why don't I get these memos?!?  :mad:

(Thanks Alan!)

So they are or are not synonymous with cortinarius phoenecius var. occidentalis? I'm a little confused.

Very cool. So from now on I know to call them cortinarius smithii. They are quite possibly the prettiest mushrooms I have found so far this year.
