Agaricus bernardii


Agaricus bernardii (Veisjampinjong)

Apart from the striking smell (fishy?), which makes this edible mushroom uninteresting for the dinner table, note too that the ring can be “pulled down”.

By contrast, the ring on the Agaricus arvensis (åkersjampinjong) cannot be “pulled down” (see illustration); it can only be “pulled up”.
