We had guest speaker David Fischer discuss various local species and present an outstandingly photographed slideshow. Mr. Fischer uses an old Sony Mavica to...
Just a few so far. And the exact location is in the woods of New Jersey :-) Happy morelling, people! ... President, New Jersey Mycological Association ...
How late do we get morels in Northern NJ? Although I know of an old apple tree in the woods and a group of 4-5 tulip poplars I haven't found morels under any...
Looks like it is. We didn't have much rain up this way after the heavy rains in the middle of April, and their development stopped cold in its tracks. This...
After trying all that great food yesterday I was thinking to myself how nice it would be to have the recipes posted to the yahoo site. It's really easy to post...
Hey Frank! We actually have a place on our website for recipes, but certainly people are welcome to post on the Yahoo group as well. Yes, a short article on...
Hi, I'll get some info on joining the Yahoo! group to you as soon as I can. No worries about who gets the credit just as long as word gets out. Also, no need...
It's great to see that you're all interested in sharing on this forum, and thank you for joining. I'm hoping to post (at least) my comments on each of our...
Well, as it turned out, all of that rain on July 4th didn't do much to bring out a whole bunch of mushrooms, but we still did well in the Russula department....
At the foray on Sunday, many forayers saw a tremendous outcropping of cespitose and very photogenic mushrooms that had taken over a rotting log. More than one...
If anyone needs help posting photos to this site you can contact me at franksantora @hotmail. com (no spaces). There are a lot of other features to explore...
What a great day for a foray. It was a little warm and the most of the mushrooms weren't in great shape but we found some interesting things. Check out the...
A friend found lots of these mushrooms growing and brought me some. The gills haven't opened up yet on all but the oldest, and although I *think* it's the same...
Frank...your links still don't seem to be working. Russulae are very difficult to ID to species, but in addition to what you've already done, there are at...
Thanks guys, don't know why the links aren't working but I put them in my photo album on this site. Take a look under photos on the left hand side there and...
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...
