Wild edible mushroom I.D. (copy)

Hi folks

Can anyone I.D. these & are they edible? (pics on link)

I posted this in gourmet cultivation then saw this topic - in case it's more appropriate here pls see my post with pics requesting I.D.

Thanks!

Hi folks

I've found a few wild mushrooms (pics below) & am wondering if anyone can reliably identify them + whether they are edible?

The first 4 pics are of what I think are 'field-mushrooms' that were growing in grass in suburbia on Sydney's Northern Beaches.

The next 3 mushrooms were growing in decaying wood in nearby bushland on Sydney's Northern Beaches.

Also are there any poisonous look-alikes to these that I should be aware of?

Thanks!

Agaricus sp and pleurotus sp

There are so many similar looking agaricus that pinning it down to spiecies is gonna be tough. The oyster is likely pleurotus ostreatus

Thanks MadMuncher

How confident are you that the last 3 are oysters?
Just checking coz I know some shrooms can be highly toxic.

Ditto for the agaricus - are these likely to be safe to eat?

Are there any toxic look-alikes or are these likely to be safe to eat?

Ok I'll harvest & make some spore prints :smile:

Thanks MentalPariah

Do you reckon that these Agaricus sp and pleurotus sp are safe to eat?

Are there any toxic look-alikes that I should check them against before consuming?

Much appreciated

General rule is if it smells like bleach or chemicals its toxic, if it smells like mushrooms it should be safe.

This is bad advice.
General rule of thumb is don't eat it unless you are 100% certain of what you are eating.  There are poisonous mushrooms, even Amanita Phalloides, that are said to taste great.  Hell, I've been made mildly sick by slightly undercooked morels, and they were delicious.

Edible agaricus should smell like anise or almonds, the poisonous ones like ink. I don't know this species, so can't tell you from pictures. Oysters should be fine in any case.

don't eat the agaricus, it's not worth it.


whatever the last pic in your original post is, is a delicious edible pluterous species (oyster)

the one above it is an oyster, too, unless there's some species of Pleurocybella down there i don't know of

you should go harvest these, fry them up, take the log home if you can, and make spore prints and spray them all over dead trees, logs, stumps
