Mushrooms

     
     The Toledo Naturalist's Association held a field trip on September 29 to look for mushrooms north of Monclova Road and west of Girdham Road in Oak Openings Metropark.  I'd say we were pretty successful.


Amanita muscaria


Bluet (or Blewitt)


Boletus


Cinnabrinus


Clitocybe


Club fungus


Cortinarius


Honey mushroom


Lycoperdon perlatum


Grifola frondosa


Russula

Thanks to Cathy Wilson for help with identification. Please let me know if we have misidentified any.

  1. Big caveat there about that Cathy Wilson. I think she's been wandering around in the woods so long she doesn't know a toadstool from a deer-dropping . . . ;-D

  2. Actually that top fungus . . is more specifically Amanita muscaria var. formosa.
    The Honey mushroom's latin name is Armillaria mellea.
