Hi All,

I'd really like your help with a simple ID. I'm not a big time mushroom hunter but finding that learning about these fungi is really fascinating.

I'm not going to eat these, I'm just really curious to know what they are because they are very common on my property. The first batch of photos relates to two mushrooms recently  which appear to be the same, from Summer. The other photos are of various other mushrooms found in the same area, previously in winter, if this helps?

I'm sorry if these are really basic / common, I've read the various threads and tried to work it out myself, but as I said, I'm not hugely into mushrooms. Thanks in advance!

* Habitat What kind of trees were nearby?  What was it growing from?  The mushrooms were growing about 15 metres apart in soil, which had grasses and lots of ground covering in the way of tree branches, leaf litter. The area was cleared farmland, however there were lots of Eucalyptus / Acacia trees nearby (Australian hardwoods). There was also some bracken nearby. The mushrooms were picked in early Summer.

* Location Where in the world was it? - Macedon Ranges, Victoria, Australia

* Gills What do they look like?  Always try to take photos that show the gills of both young and mature mushrooms.  - One of the photos shows the gills beginning to appear on the larger mushroom.

* Stem Carefully dig it out of the ground so you can get a picture of the whole thing. - Refer pictures

* Spore print color (if you have time) - Sorry, no spore print

* Scent of the mushroom. - No distinct odor

* Color that the mushroom bruises when damaged.

* Anything else you might find important. See photos below of other mushrooms found growing in the same earlier the previous winter, if this helps?




























Here are some photo of some other mushrooms that were growing in the same location a few months earlier, in Winter. Feel free to point out any that are really obvious, apologies for the poor quality images.

I'm not a trusted identifier. The first pic is possibly Amanita ananiceps ?

Maybe because they're not psilocybin?

Probably has nothing to do with if they're active or not. Your amanita photos show more details that people need to id. The rest are just pics of caps, which makes it pretty hard to give anything more than a guess....mushroom #2 is a russula Im guessing.

It is hard to ID your mushrooms without photos of the undersides. The main mushroom has a partial veil covering the gills, also making things a bit more difficult. I think it is an Amanita sp. like someone else suggested above.

:whathesaid:


Unless the mushroom already has a distinctive and unique cap texture/color it is kind of like asking:

"Hey - do you recognize this guy?"  :smirk:




That being said, #1 is an Amanita, #4 looks like Tubaria, and #6 looks like Laccaria.

Try an Id request for one at a time. In other words, Make an id request for each mushroom.

Always include a cap, stem, and Gill shot. A lot of times you can see the color of the spores on the mature gills. An actual spore print is ideal.

Here's an example of the Photo's I suggested.

Great job on your finds. Don't get discouraged.

Also, I would suggest, Title your post with "ID Request and the part of the world your in" Mine would be like this. 

Example: ID Request. PNW.
