The mushroom from Outer Space
One of the strange fungi that one might stumble upon on a foray: Stropharia aeruginosa. Not edible. Note that the stipe is white above the ring.
Easily confused with Stropharia caerulea, which is as weird-looking but has a thin, filmsy ring (which easily falls off), grows on manure and has white mycel often hanging from the base.
Always fun to find
Shaggy Mane. Edible.
The only mushroom you should collect in a plastic bag.
Mild tasting.
Not to be confused with Coprinopsis atramentaria
which is poisonous when consumed together with alcohol.
Way long gone. Coprinopsis atramentaria disintegrating.
The last of the season?
Boletus reticulatus. Picked 21st September 2014. Probably the last of the season.
