Moryma22 Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Found this cool one fruiting in the soil in north/central Florida. It bruises very easily and turns a brownish color. It reminds me of a bolete, not too sure of the exact genera or species so any information is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCn15 Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Looks like Strobilomyces Strobilaceus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moryma22 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hm I don't think that's it. That species seems to have more pronounced scales on the cap. This one has a smoother texture, but I know that can be hard to tell from a picture. Thanks though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 I think this is a species similar to Tylopilus sordidus. Another possibility to check is genus Porphyrellus. Strobilomyces mushrooms have shaggier stems and generally show remnants of a partial veil hanging from the cap margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moryma22 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Those seem like good starting points, I'll look into them more, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
