Matt McDermott Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Phallus indusiatus. http://www.mushroomexpert.com/phallus_indusiatus.html From the bamboo in the pics i assume these are not pics from PA.....or some type of skirted stinkhorn. IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Cool photos! Definitely not morels. These are a type of stinkhorn, almost certainly the species Phallus indusiatus as Matt said. Here's the Wiki portrayal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phallus_indusiatus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted November 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hi! Matt, These pics are from Chinese blog and the mushrooms in the pics I know its Chinese name " 竹荪“. I don't know its English name. This kinda mushrooms are appear in the southern mountainous region between the equator and 30 degrees north latitude, normally. There are many this kind mushroom growers in China. We can buy it from Chinese website. I'd like find the wild ones bu myself. Hope some day I can go back China going to Banboo forests find my own. 14 hours ago, Dave W said: Cool photos! Definitely not morels.

I like the name "veiled lady" . Yes, It is from stinkhorn family. The cap smells a little bit stink. When we clean it, its caps has to be removed . I almost buy some from Chinese website. My brother told me that the most vendors use Sulfur smoked them very white, don't buy. When summer comes, he'll pick some for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Thanks Lily. That's really interesting. I once sliced/fried a "stinkhorn egg", probably the species Phallus impudicus. It was actually tasty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted November 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 You tried the eggs, that is wonderful! I never had this eggs before. But I saw this blog http://blog.sciencenet.cn/blog-614989-920015.html the guy who is the blogger cooked the eggs. His town is famous for cultivate this mushrooms. I had caesar's mushroom eggs, they are super good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 "Caesar's Mushroom" eggs are immature fruit bodies of mushrooms in genus Amanita section Caesareae. These are much different than immature stinkhorn mushrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lily Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I asked myself why I didn't go mushroom hunting when I was in China?! Now I'm fascinating in hunting "veiled lady" mushrooms in the banboo forests. Usually, we dug banboo shoots to make good dishes. Thanks Dave. Wish some day take you go back to China hunting mushrooms. My brother's city is famous for Russula griseocarnosa ( red mushrooms, brittle gills ). Dave, if you copy "浦北县五黄岭 " google, there are the moutains around my brother's city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
