Bay Area Multiple Requests - Gyms and Jacks?
    #27138285 - 01/09/21 07:08 PM (3 years, 19 days ago)

This beautiful cluster popped up after the heavy rains recently in the Bay Area. I don't think they are Cortinarius and are some Gymnopilus species, possibly Junonius? Ventricosus? Aurantiophyllus I'm not sure, I don't know their ranges and the Gyms are very sneaky!

Habitat:
Where does it grow? What does it grow on? Suburban wood chips.

Gills:
Cream to orange color dependent on age. Not connected to stipe. Moderately spaced.

Stem:
3-5 inches long, 1-1.5 inch thick sometimes annulus present, vertically fibrous. Orange to cream like cap. Hollow but thick fleshed, small hole.

Cap:
3-6 inch diameter caps. Sometimes wavy. Orange to cream from center.

Spore print color: Orange brown.

Bruising:
No significant bruising detected.

Other information:
Smells like mushrooms and stone fruits possibly? Peaches and apricots, something like that.









These were nearby and being feasted on heavily. Are these Jack-o-lanterns or more of the same? I did not disturb the grazing natives so no gill shot. NO worries if this one can't be ID'ed I just liked the photo and wanted to share.



Thanks in advance, guys and I hope you all had a lovely New Year!

It is without a doubt Gymnopilus sp.
Not sure exactly which one, maybe sapineus.

Could be Gymnopilus aurantiophyllus, but could be another species too.

Try keying them out with the Gymnopilus monograph:
