shantima Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Last week saw these in Northern Idaho, coniferous forest. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Yes, I agree that these are Turbinellus floccosus, commonly called shaggy or wooly chanterelle. I have not found these in my area, but I think they are cool looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clamp connection Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 I think you have more than one species there but I could be wrong...not familiar with those personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shantima Posted September 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Thank you guys, they all were at the same location, it was a long very steep hiking trail so the elevation was different. Some spots were damp some dry. May be that's why the mushrooms look different. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dig Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 We have the same thing down here too. They are very pretty. I wish they were edible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCn15 Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Two different species I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I think they are all Turbinellus flocossus, although there does appear to be differences in the hymenium (fertile under-surface). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shantima Posted September 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 Thanks again for your help! Good to know they aren't edible since there were hundreds of them on the trail and I didn't pick any...))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
