Title: Lookin for puddin and findin fungi
Post by: Jeff on October 09, 2008, 04:52:51 PM

Last time out looking for pudding stones I noticed all the fall mushrooms and fungus about foot.  Lovely things they are.  :) I know what a couple of them are. Do you?

I think the first one is aminita muscaria. Don't know the rest.

If that second one was down here, I'd call it a Death Head

All I see are sarsaparilla, a red maple seedling, bunch berry, wavy dicranum moss and a limbed spruce log.  What are you guys looking at? Oh, those "mush meadows"? ;D :D

i'm up with isawlogs on this ones.  I think that one is what we call a "turkyfeather" or something like that maw used to call it near bottom.   I gots lots of them ones like the top2 that make ya wonder where ya been the last 3 or 4 days  :-X ;D  not that I ever tried any out, but got a pretty dang good ID book my maw bought back in 80's field hunters guide to "I.D.ing" mushrooms or something like that it is full sized with ~400 full color pics and 2500 or so pics drawings and such it is ~2" thick really nice book,  she gave it to me about 4 or 5 months back since see is in a home she can't go looking like she used to at 88 yrs young now.

The fifth one is commonly called Turkey Tail.  It is also referred to as brown rot.  I forgot the scientific name already.  It was mentioned on a Cornel webinar just Wednesday.



Wait....I could be confused again...brown rot may be call Chicken of the Woods and is actuall yellow in color...come to think of it Turkey Tail may not be a rot at all....what was the question?? ???

I'll go with Jeff on that one. Turkey tail is close, but doesn't grow in a spiral, grows more shelf like.
