brendan Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 Hi, a friend recently got a new puppy. He lives on a farm in MD and has been pulling a lot of mushrooms for fear the puppy might poison itself. He sent me photos of some of the most common ones, but I'm not sure I can pull off an ID by photo alone. Obviously there's at least one species of Bolete, not so sure on the other two. They were apparently all growing near spruce and japanese maple. Always enjoy this forum, hopefully in the near future I can be more of a helper and less of an asker haha. Photos 1-3 are the boletes, Photos 4 and 5 are something else but the same mushroom from different angles. Apparently the mushroom in the last photo was run over so lol. I hope I didn't commit a faux pas by including multiple varieties in one post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Bolete is either Cyanoboletus pulverulentus or Boletus oliveisporus, but the dark cap color favors the former. For the agaric (4th/5th photos), more info would be needed to venture an ID proposal... spore print color would help. Last photo...? Although I don't recognize anything here that would be dangerous to a dog, it's a good idea to remove any unidentified mushrooms from an area frequented by small children or pets.
