Bowguy Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 This mushroom was growing in a mixed woods forest actually sometimes on trails. Maples were perhaps predominant though conifers were nearby. There were many but none exactly together. The top was orangish. Bottom white. Grew from the dirt. I am trying to get a pore print as we speak. Sorry these are slightly beat up. I had nothing w me to carry em and it was a distant hike. Thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Despite there being no obvious presence of latex oozing from these mushrooms, I think these represent the species Lactifluus hygrophoroides (formerly in genus Lactarius). Did you notice any liquid oozing from cuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowguy Posted July 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Thank you! Thanks Dave. That kid is good. I thought I watched most his videos but somehow I never came across that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby b Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Yes he is. If there's somebody else making videos the way he does, I like to know their site. The photos aren't very clear but it looks like there's cross veining. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave W Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 "Cross veining on gills" is often a trait that is sometimes evident, other times not. Varies from species to species. With some species presence/absence is a critical ID trait. Other species not so much. I see plenty of L. hygrophoroides that lack cross veins.
