Dave W Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 They look a little bit like the candy/cracker "Chocorooms" :-) But seriously, these mushrooms are likely a species of Coprinellus. There are species of this genus that produce mushrooms that grow on indoor structures. http://mushroomobserver.org/271096?q=H5ov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob Posted March 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Thanks! They are a bit "chocolatey" and slimy. I am pretty new to IDing mushrooms, but I thought they were Coprinus-type. I see now that Coprinus is transfered to Coprinellus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Genus Coprinus has been split into several genera. The majority of the most common NA species are now placed in genera Coprinellus or Coprinopsis. Only a few remain in Coprinus. The only Coprinus species I am aware of in my geographic area is Coprinus comatus. The splitting is due to DNA analysis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacob Posted March 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 I realize that the mushrooms are there because of too much water, probably lots of water! Hurricane Irma damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diana Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 Okay, I probably should have put my reply on the post with the toilet mushroom.... just was afraid I'd catch something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
