Hi folks! I added 2 mushrooms to the "MUSHROOM ID" folder under photos. I think one is a lobster mushroom and the other some kind of chantrelle. The ornagish...
I think they're all chanterelles. No lobster. Does the big one smell like apricots? The little ones look like cantherellus cinnabarinus. They're not hard to...
I agree with both Carols and Jack...these are both the most common chanterelles in New Jersey...the yellow one being Cantharellus lateritius, and the small...
Gotcha on the file names. I did a spore print of the small red one and it was white. As far as the larger mushroom I thought was the lobster but Carol ID'd as...
... forget that not all fungi are gilled. Spores are produced in tubes and pores as well as on teeth. The puffballs produce spores internally and then expell...
I'm really hoping the new pics I added to the MUSHROOM ID folder under photos are chanterelles! I *think* they smell faintly fruity and they seem to be the...
In my excitement I forgot to mention that the small red ones in the bottom left of one of the photos was what we thought was the other common kind of...
Chanterelles like it damp. Sloping ground is more likely though they do grow on the flats. The closest poisonous look-alike is the Jack-O-Lantern (Omphalotus...
No gills, but I'll look at them in the dark later. Do the Jack-o- lanterns usually glow or is that a rare characteristic? Think I should freeze these till I...
I don't consider the glowing to be reliable enough to use as a make or break identifying characteristic, but if they don't have gills, there's no reason to...
Well... I fried 'em up in butter and ate half of a small one. Pretty mild, not nearly as interesting as a morel or one of those inky caps you can't eat if you...

I did the spore print on a microscope slide and took some photos under my scope. Even though you guys were sure it was in fact a smooth chanterelle that I...
I uploaded 2 new ones in the MUSHROOM ID folder under Photos, I think the first is a black trumpet and the second I'm still looking up. The Ones I think are...
... isn't ... I think the second one is G. meruloides. Hard to say from the picture. Are the tubes underneath irregular? Was it growing near ash trees?...
So you think the first is in fact a trumpet? Any look-alikes? As for the 2nd I too thought it might be an ash bolete after looking through a few guides. They...
... growing ... many ... alikes ... Yes, I think the first one is a trumpet; but I don't confirm ID's unless I have the mushroom in hand. It should be paper...
It yielded a white spore print, but I've read that there is no more disinction between the black trumpet and horn of plenty. If we can make it to Schiff this...
Since many of us don't quite remember the smell of moldy brie cheese, a lot of us describe the smell of black trumpets as "fruity", almost like apricots (much...
Is the Blue Chanterelle the one that used to be called P. Multiplex? They look like black trumpets but I find the taste of Craterellus Fallax far superior....
I haven't heard opinions on whether chantrelles and trumpets usually produce in the same patch year after year or in the same patch more than once in a season....
