ID Request: macrolepiota procera

#29664165 - 09/09/26 08:59 AM (3 days, 20 hours ago)

I've not eaten many parasol mushrooms and would like to start adding them the list of mushrooms I like to ID. I found this one today, it looks like a macrolepiota procera to me (mature).

Can anyone assist in ID? I'd like some second opinions because I'm very new to parasols in general. I've ID'd it myself with 2 sources, but I think I would like some feedback from the crew here!

These don't grow in my area, so I've actually never laid hands on one. But the size, the patterned stem and the white gills at maturity all point toward M. procera.
The only key factor left is the double ring, which is only partially visible in the first picture. Typically fallen off before getting it home, I suppose? But I think you've nailed it.
