eat-bolete Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 Was very happy to find 5-6 mushrooms in 2 hours today. I identified some, but please confirm. 1. Some kind of Amanita, possibly A. velutipes. I did not see any volva though. 2. Beautiful Suillus pictus. 3. Tylopius felleus. This giant got me very excited until I tasted it. 4. Not sure what these are. Found them growing in open grassy area on sand. Black, trumpet shape, brown velvety edges. 5. Fungus thief. Got busted in misdeed. I named her Winona.
Dave W Posted June 20, 2015 Report Posted June 20, 2015 I think the Amanita may be A. flavorubens. Ring for A. velutipes should look like a funnel. Need to see the stipe base. Stumped on the trumpet-shaped things. Check Thelephora. Winona the mycophagist.
eat-bolete Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Posted June 20, 2015 Thanks Dave, looks like T. terrestris indeed.
Dave W Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Those pictus are really nice. Actually, the name has been changed to Suillus spraguei. But the mushroom hasn't changed! A very good edible when young and firm. It's the only Suillus I collect for the table.
