Yergaderga Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Is this an edible craterellis? It looks like it could be tubaeformis. Found in hemlock/ beech/ other hardwood mix. It has a hollow stem. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitog Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 It certainly looks like what we call C. tubaeformis here on the West Coast. But check MushroomExpert.com for the latest complications in applying that name. It turns out that our local Winter Chanterelle is actually a different, as yet unnamed species.

Dave W Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 Some filed guides include one or two other Craterellus spcies that resemble C. tubaeformis. But I think these may have been synonymized with tubaeformis. One way or the other, likely edible. Under hemlock is where I find tubaeformis, usually not until mid September.

Yergaderga Posted August 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 Hm. I wonder what it could be. This is from PA do it could just be the geographical difference that caused this to spring up now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 Just probably a regular C. tubaeformis fruiting in response to there having been a few cool nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
