Monk Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 I think these are cantharellus roseocanus, but I found them in Georgia in moss under an old oak and everything online has told me these are mostly in the Pacific NW under Spruce and Jack pines.

The Mushroom Whisperer Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Interesting. Very similar to C. roseocanus. Do the caps have any pink hue at all, in person? https://mushroomobserver.org/255778?q=WDYy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk Posted September 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Yes, the majority of the cap was a pale pink with only small amounts of orange coming through on sone. The gills were a more bright orange than most of the normal chanterelles around here. Unforunately I was working when i found them a couple weeks ago and only got this single photo in a paper bag i happened to have with me, i knew they were in the chanterelle family so a coworker and i split them ate them, of course later i did more research and kicked myself for not sporeprinting and taking more photos. I will be going back to the house sometime soon to see if they have returned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mushroom Whisperer Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 The range has been expanded to include the eastern parts of the upper continent. But it would be interesting to see if there is any variance in the DNA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Monk, do you post on Mushroom Observer at all? It would be interesting to see if anyone else may have an opinion about this interesting collection. It may be useful to dehydrate/preserve one of them.

Monk Posted September 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 I don't, just started looking into forums for this kind of thing a few days ago. I will join and post them there soon. I'm hoping to go back to the site in the near future and see if they have come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
