when i collected it seven years ago. i took some lousy, half-hearted photos, wrote a minimal description, and preserved it, all the while wondering why i was even bothering. so when i finally studied the thing under the microscope theother day it was quite a surprise when the cap surface was composed...
are well browned. blend the remaining salt and pepper, the tofu, soy sauce, and nutritional yeast (if using) in a food processor until creamy. fold in the faux bacon bits, the green part ofthe green onions, and the fried potatoes and pour the mixture into a large, oiled pie or tart pan. bake for to...
bark still attached, in my collecting experience. as it is currently defined the species is found across north america, in europe, and elsewhere. sometimes called "witch's butter," tremella mesenterica appears as a yellow mass of brain-like lobes with a gelatinous consistency. although the species appears...
once-vast genus collybia , collybia cookei grows from the ground or from the blackened remains ofother, larger mushrooms. its stems are attached to "sclerotia"--little knots of tissue buried in the substrate. you'll need to pry around and uncover the sclerotia if you want to identify collybia cookei...
"merely handling the specimens," he wrote, "produces the blue color where they are pressed by the fingers." so, point number one: the species bruises blue so readily that the phenomenon is notable and, in peck's opinion, worthy ofthe species' very name. point number two: peck says the stem is "lemon...
that can be ridiculously difficult to identify, the blushing and blackening species of russula form a subset that can almost be worked with--if you are willing to accept that the species are defined on outdated concepts and that they will undoubtedly change as soon as someone applies contemporary methods...
"typical" albatrellus pore surface: instead of featuring small, roundish pores, albatrellus pes-caprae boasts large, angular pores that approach being diamond-shaped or hexagonal. albatrellus ellisii is similar (it too is a scaly-capped, large-pored, conifer associate), but it is more yellow, develops...
agaric. presumably the brown scales on the whitish cap reminded bulliard of a tiger—perhaps what we might call a leopard these days. the mushroom, he said, is found "in summer and fall in woods on old, rotten trees and more commonly on elms." the elm bulliard had in mind was probably ulmus laevis, the...
, but it is fairly widely distributed east ofthe great plains. it resembles an agaricus in many ways, but its gills are attached to the stem and usually develop a purplish gray or purplish brown cast by maturity. it is a drab, dirty yellowish species that is unremarkable except for its fairly large...
