Lactarius (matrisker)

On the NYMS mushroom walk upstate in Harriman State Park  recently,
Soppdagelse's New York correspondent chanced upon
purply, meaty Lactarius.
Not sure which Lactarius this one is, unfortunately.

A Norwegian Lactarius:
Lactarius deliciosus (Furumatriske)

Chanterelles!



Unfortunately, only false chanterelles (Hygrophoropsis auranticca))

Still, it was nice to know that the mushroom season is on its way.

Early russula (kremle)

Finally, the season's first!

Unfortunately, it looks suspiciously like a poisonous russula 
(Russula emetica/rød giftkremle)
