Whothatchineze Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Did some primitive camping out in Northern California nearby a national park. We didn't find that many morels, even so, someone did tell me not to disclose where I found them. But here's the photos of what we found over this past weekend 5/22/2016. I wonder if some of these other mushrooms were edible or not. We just ate the morels! They were the best mushrooms we've ever had! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Smalldridge Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Looks like you had a fun trip. The first three photos look like Amanita velosa. The eighth photo may be Flammulina velutipes or Flammulina populicola. The ninth photo may be Coprinellus micaceus. These are just a guess based on limited information. Also be aware that the first three could also be Amanita phalloides (death cap). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasso Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 As John says, first 3 photos could be Amanita velosa, or they could be Amanita vernicoccora. They are both edible, but not recommended as either could be confused with Amanita ocreata (destroying angel) which is deadly poisonous. Do not eat!!!

Dave W Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 That eighth photo may be Galerina marginata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
