Pinecones Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I don't normally fuss with LBM identification, except for the times when I see ones that seem extra unique like these; growing quite vigorously on an old stump. I was able to break a cluster off and it remained clustered, they were a little bit fused at the base, as opposed to totally individual mushrooms. I took a spore print and I'm pretty sure it was white, but I may have gotten it confused with another LBM print I took. I didn't organize my prints very well :x If my memory serves me, I bruised/crushed a specimen and didn't note any discoloration or bruising. Growing high elevation conifer forest, obviously it's snowy and a bit chilly right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby b Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 They have the look of a Mycena which has white spore print. Looks like there's also a Ganoderma in one photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 There are several species of Mycena that fruit during cold weather, often when snow is present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
