PNW forest adventure, many colorful finds
    #8920079 - 09/12/08 06:04 PM (15 years, 6 months ago)

I realize I made a big post, any/all IDs are welcome, I'm just trying to increase my knowledge base here by identifying different mushrooms. I tried to ID everything but have little experience doing this so correct me as I'll surely be wrong!

Species 1: Probably just a LBM
Species 2: Polyporus elegans
Species 3: Russula xerampelina?
Species 4: Probably just a LBM but the cespitose growth threw me off
Species 5: No idea!
Species 6: Lepiota procera
Species 7: Russula brevipes




Species 1




Habitat: Found growing in a covered up pile of dirt/soil/possibly manure, growing cespitose and gregarious
Gills: Brown and seemingly free attachment, close gill spacing
Stem: 1in in length, <0.5cm in diameter, light orange, hollow and thin
Cap: 1in in diameter, creamy brown and orange, smooth, and wavy margin


Species 2





Habitat: Growing directly off mossy wood, probably alive
Gills: No gills... or pores?
Stem: 1in in length, <0.5cm in diameter, brown and solid
Cap: 3in in diameter, light orange and light brown, smooth, plane


Species 3




Habitat: Alongside trails and directly from dirt

Species 5




Habitat: Found directly in the dirt, solitary
Gills: Vibrant orange and pink, subdecurrent, somewhat subdistant spacing
Stem: More of a stump, 1in in length, half an inch in diameter, same colors as gills
Cap: 3in in diameter, nearly same color as gills/stem but more orange and less red/pink, bumpy, uplifted and umbilicate


Species 6




Habitat: Found directly in the dirt growing solitary
Gills: White, adnexed or free (cant really tell), crowded
Stem: 6in in length, <0.5cm in diameter, white and solid, bumpy and has slight husks?
Cap: 2-3in in diameter, white/light brown, smooth, broadly umbonate


Species 7




Habitat: Found directly in the dirt, solitary
Gills: White, subdecurrent, crowded

Excellent thread and format!  :thumbup:

1) Psathyrella
2) Polyporus elegans
3) Its a Russula, probably not xerampelina.  How does it taste?
4) Pholiota
5) Hypomyces lactiflorum, a great edible
6) Its a lepiota but definitely not L. procera. 
7) Russula brevipes - This is the mushroom that Hypomyces lactiflorum colonizes.

Yea its really awesome and it makes the Russula brevipes taste a lot better, too bad we don't have them in our area. 

The hypomyces never takes all of them, you usually find both Russula and Hypomyces nearby.

Yes, species 2 and 7 i was almost positive on, and I knew I had the genus right for 3 and 6. Thanks for the IDs Alan.

Species 5 I found the most interesting, so bright and colorful I'm eager to try it.  I'll check the taste on the russula

I always find those lobsters mushrooms, and they all have something eating them already! I want to try them so bad, but every one I find something has gotten to it first. They're neat and often are really misshapen, and really cool looking.

Yea the bugs get them fast.

When you find one, look around in the leaves for other smaller ones that are less bug bitten, they usually fruit with several in a ring.  If they are all bad then you need to go sooner after it rains.
