Big Laughing Gym?
    #23599129 - 08/31/16 09:22 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)




Habitat:
In the woods of Nova Scotia, quite rooty with fallen leaves, surrounded by dead/dying pines.  One bunch was growing on a tree root.

Gills:
Rusty-orange



Stem:
20-30mm, 5mm, orangy-brown, fibrous, hollow, and nicely proportioned to the cap



Cap:
Ranging from 10-40mm, dome/conical-shaped (some funkier than others) color similar to stem but more bronze, hearty, radially fibrillose


Spore print color:
Brown



Bruising:
No visible bruising

Other information:
Been wandering the woods since the weather has gotten cooler.  Found this bunch all within the same area and couldn't find any more in several hours of hunting.

May I ask what characteristics lead you to that?

None seemed to be slimy in any way, nor did they seem to be previously. 

Very few (a couple) of them did seem to have cortina:

I've never seen a Gym or Cort with this color spore print. The textured, fibrous cap, terrestrial habit, cortina and medium brown print all line up under Inocybe.
