White Amanita or Lepiota?
    #5841991 - 07/10/06 11:05 AM (17 years, 6 months ago)

People, I'm sorry. I know this is my second post with no pic. My camera's on the fritz.

These mushrooms looked almost like a cylinder comig out of the ground.
The cap is completely connected and barely any bigger than the stem.

I'd like to add that I've seen posts close to this and people are getting told they're morels. I'm not too sure about that but I do know though that the caps are only about 1cm tall at most.

FRESH:
CAP: 1.5 cm-5 cm, white, blackish warts
STEM: 1.3 cm-4.3 cm, white, rough, about the same width as the cap
UNDERSIDE: no gills? no pores? Sorry, I don't know how to describe it. It's connected.

DRY:
CAP: 1.5 cm-5 cm, white/REALLY light brown, blackish/browish warts
STEM: 1.3 cm-4.3 cm,white/light brown, rough, about the same width as the cap
UNDERSIDE: now has some black

Sounds like a Coprinus to me.

He said he could not see any gills.. Are you thinking, a coprinus pin. or species that does not fully open? Perhaps not a pin, because if it is a coprinus, it should begin decomposing (turning to black ink) with age....or as a result of harvesting i supoose.

Then again, he also mentioned something about morels...?

Omnikk, do they look anything like these?

Oh no, nothing like them. i've seen ones aroud here like that but, they just turn to mush :frown:.

The biggest things about these mushrooms which i think will help with an ID is the fact the stem is about as big as the cap. If you was to turn the mushroom upside-down and look at the bottom of the stem you'd barely see the cap. I'll provide a very crappy picture. This picture's fromm a scanner :smile:. (My cam ... got wet .. to say the least)

As far as shrikage whe dried too, the stems don't 'shrivel' so to say. They more so .. flatten but, still keep the same width.

As far as a spore print... I dunno how the hell to get one from a shroom with no obvious pores or gills.


( Poor quality, sorry )
These are three mushrooms.

The top shroom has had the cap ripped off. The top of the cap is visible.

The middle shroom is still connected.

The bottom shroom is disconnected, bottom of cap visible.

Try cutting one of the caps open and see what's inside.

For example, some mushrooms like these have gills inside, but they look like they've been wadded up and stuffed in. Another possibility is that it may have the same sort of stuff as a puffball.

Another possibility is that they have been parasitized by something, so their normal form is something we'd have to guess at.

Happy mushrooming!
