More fruits of the fall season...

Went out for a quick look this morning and found a few cyans before I decided to call it quits due to an upcoming midterm. Lots more pins are up and growing , too bad the shots of them outdoors didn't turn out better, but I was kinda in a hurry as they're right out in the open ... The first patch, yeh the shiny brown things are mushrooms ... Back at home... Also found some large patches of Hypholoma aurantiaca, good indicator species for the cyans IME.... A cluster of what appears to be some kind of Pholiota(?) to me... And a few tiny opium poppies someone must have planted in a local park ... They're diggin this rain!!! Should make for some good hunting coming up soon ... DH

Your tree-loving pholiota looks like hypholoma fasciculare. They have very light green/yellow gills and they taste awfully bitter (mind you: tasting is ok, but eating not; this is a very toxic species!) Can you confirm this?

Hypholoma fasciculare are much more little and thinner, and look like psilocybe species, they aint some fat ass shrooms like doze

Hey koraks, I'm familiar with the sulfur tufts as well. But the suspected pholiotas were much larger than I've ever seen H. fasciculare grow, I guess I should have put something in there for scale. Also, I've never seen sulfur tufts with the scaly caps like that. At first glance I thought gymnopilus, because they smelled a lot like G. spectabilis that I've found before and how they were growing, but the caps were slimy, so I figured pholiota was more likely. Caps had deposits of orangish-brown spores on them. DH

I see both your points TOaD and DethHed, and agree with them. fasciculare was my guess as they appear in abundance in this season. But indeed, the scaly caps looked a trifle odd to me. The fact that they are quite big doesn't prove much, I've seen them growing to at least 5" (cap diameter).
For a decent ID, we'd need gill shots and spore prints and whatnot
