Kevin Hoover Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Looks like a parasol to me. If the interior of the cap turns reddish when the cap is removed or when it’s cut, then it’s a shaggy parasol. If not, then I’m not sure of what type of parasol it is, because I have no experience with the other types. It should have had a ring on the stalk that could be slid up and down. I have shaggy parasols in the dehydrator right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted September 17, 2022 Report Share Posted September 17, 2022 Amanita rhacopus https://mushroomobserver.org/495182?q=1ndwP . It's best to photograph a mushroom while it's still in one piece (at least some of the photos). Also, it's best to see the entire mushroom; the stalk base may need to be dug out of the ground.
