Mushroom ID Request
    #22427014 - 10/24/15 12:18 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

All of these were found in South Florida woods about a day after it rained heavily. I have provided pictures of the mushrooms found along with the nearby environment they were found in. Please note that I threw them all away afterwards because this was just for the experience and I did not get any spore prints. If any of them might be magic, please let me know and I will look for them again and get spore prints. Also, the stem and cap size I'm referring to them in their current state (Example: a 2 inch mushroom with a 1 3/4 inch stem I will say has a medium sized stem). I know that a few of these mushrooms were not mature so I left most of them behind so that they can develop and spread for future picking.







Mushroom 1







Habitat:
Found it growing in the ground at a corner of the trail I was on. Slightly bushy nearby. There was also a common white mushroom near it that I do not know the name of but know that they are poisonous to eat and grow right after rain, usually on people's lawns.

Gills:
White or cream colored gills.

Stem:
2-3 inches, thick, white or cream colored.

Cap:
See picture.

Bruising:
Seemed to be none or maybe yellowish but if so a very light yellow.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mushroom 2





Habitat:
Bushy, dry area. Pine trees nearby.

Bruising:
None.

I now do realize that I should've taken pictures of the gills and done spore prints and I apologize for not getting that information for you guys. Thank you for your consideration and identifying experience and I will do a lot better on the next mushroom hunting trip I take. Also, what books would you guys recommend for mushroom hunting in South Florida? Thanks.

If you go to the imgur link, right-click and; "Copy Image Location" then come back here and click the 3rd icon from the right above the text field (It will say "Image" if you hover over it with your mouse) and paste before mentioned image location it will make it much easier for us to identify your mushrooms.

Uploading your pictures directly to this site will make the process easier- http://www.shroomery.org/5286/How-do-I-put-pictures-in-my-post

May you be filled with loving kindness.

Well, I did what you said with the imgur links but now the pictures are huge. Is there any way to make them smaller? I also added spoilers to the pictures but that didn't really help much.

8 and 10 are variations on a theme of Russula, but I couldn't begin to guess at which species (many are only distinguishable microscopically). 9 kinda looks like the world's tiniest chicken of the woods, but that genus doesn't have gills—if yours had gills and not pores, that's not it. 12 looks like an old Ganoderma (that's a best guess).

While death caps are amanitas, op's pic is not a death cap but it is an  amanita, called destroying angel.
