Shywiles Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 I need an ID for these mushrooms found. Hubby found them under White Oak and short needle pine next to a ditch. It has been raining so much the mushrooms we have never seen before are popping up. These were on our property fence with woods on all sides but the entranc Southeastern Louisiana. Thanks for any help! Shywiles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 At least two species here, but I don't see any that look like Imleria badia to me. The one in the top five photos has raised ornamentation on the stalk. Is it the same mushroom as the one seen in the last photo? Dark spots on the last one look like scabers. So, I think one type of mushroom you have represents a species from genus Leccinum. There's also one with a smooth stalk and reddish or copper colored pores. I think this one is a species of Chalciporus. Imleria badia has a brownish stalk and yellow to greenish pores (at maturity) that bruise grayish-blue.

Shywiles Posted September 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Dave thanks for replying. Now that you have said there is two species in these photos I see that now. They were not far apart so "assumed" they were the same. Not good on my part! Smh.. yes those are the same as the top five photos. I was told they all were Bay Bolete so good thing we did not eat them. We are still learning and never eat any we can not positively ID ..ask questions & research but some of the info is way much for my limited knowledge. Rather be safe than sorry or dead! We stick to eating the one we know are safe and ones, even when told they are ok, we still try to find out if it meets all characteristics of the mushroom it is said to be. Don't know who is knowledgeable just from internet posts. We use this site & Mushroom Observer for our go to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
