Growing under ash, this is certainly a Gyrodon merylioides, the Ash Bolete.
Wow… what a bounty. On a whim Nayla and I decided to go on a mushroom hunt to pull in some of our regular Agaricus campestris, Marasmius oreades, and possibly some assorted Puffballs, but we brought many more different varieties than we expected.
Here’s the total below. I’ll be adding in detailed entries as I set them up for spore prints. I figure that this blog is the best method to keep a mushroom journal.
First Row: 7 blue-staining Boletes of unidentified variety (5 mature, 2 buttons)
Second Row: 1 unidentified white mushroom growing on debris, a handfull of Marasmius oreades (Fairy Ring Mushroom) caps, 8 small Agaricus campestris (Meadow Mushroom).
Third Row: 3 unidentified field mushrooms, 1 unidentified field mushroom (possibly the same as the first, but different stem color), 1 Gyrodon merylioides (Ash Bolete).
Fourth Row: 1 unidentified Psathyrella(?), 5 small assorted Puffballs, 11 Lycoperdon, 6 Calvatia.
And then there are 6 possible Agaricus of some persuasion or another, but there are some features that may prove otherwise.
Details coming soon!
