Mushroom69 Posted September 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 I thought these were common Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Falcone Posted September 11, 2021 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 Suillus spraguei. I’d like to see the stem to be 100% certain. I think they have a wonderful meaty flavor if you get to them before the slugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 I agree these may represent the species Suillus spraguei; if not then almost certainly another species of Suillus. Were these rinsed before the photo was taken? Photo taken indoors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave W Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 Are they all the same species? The photo is a bit blurry. It is best to photograph mushrooms outdoors, in a well-lit but shaded area. Low-light photos tend to be blurry, and flash distorts color. In the basket I see one just below/right of center that seems to have a darker stem. Difficult to say if it's the same type as the others, but I think I also see the remnants of a white partial veil on this one mushroom and this is a trait associated with Suillus spraguei. Online discussion of mushroom ID is best centered around photographs (and descriptions) where individual specimens are seen in their entirety. Different angles/perspectives provide a means to assess specific traits. Also, vertically sectioning a mushroom to show the interior is also recommended. Once an ID proposal is provided, it's up to the person who has the mushrooms to decide whether or not their basketful of mushrooms are all the same type as the ones assessed.
