Possible Oysters (Pleurotus or not?)
    #23762024 - 10/22/16 07:37 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

I've successfully ID'd a lot of edibles but oysters keep faking me out.  Last time I thought I had some the print was wrong and so I've managed to psych myself out of what I'm pretty sure have been several patches of real oyster mushrooms.  Collected several of these but want some confirmation before I try to cook them.  (I'll wait for the print regardless, but it would help me feel better with confirmation I'm at least looking for the right features.)

Habitat: On dead logs in mixed conifer forests, Northern California

Gills: White, decurrent gills.  Most reach the majority of the way down the stem but not on every specimen.

Stem: White, minimal (mostly cap), attached on the side rather than centered.

Cap: From 1 to 5 inches in diameter, light cream/tan.  Hemispherical, curling over at the edges.

Spore print color: White.

Bruising: None noticed

Other information: Mostly generic "mushroom" scent but I got a hint of licorice when first collecting.

Oysters indeed.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Thank you for the prompt response.  I'm excited to try wild (rather than cultivated) oyster mushrooms.
