I'm not sure what species it is

False parasol 》 Chlorophyllum molybdites

A beautiful spore print off this huge false parasol. Photos hardly do justice to the dusty, sage green color of their spores. This specimen had a stipe that was 7.25 inches tall and a cap 7.5 inches broad. Now I just have to find a frame for it. 💚

FOTD #124 : false parasol! (chlorophyllum molybdites)

the false parasol (AKA green-spored parasol, green-spored lepiota, green gill or vomiter) is a widespread agaric fungus. it most often grows on lawns or in parks, especially in areas near human habitation..- it is very often confused with the parasol mushroom (macrolepiota procera).

the big question : can i bite it?? no !! they are poisonous. though consumption has never lead to death, the symptoms* are very unpleasant. most mushroom poisonings in the US are due to this mushroom.

c. molybdites description :

"it is an imposing mushroom with a cap ranging from 8 to 30 cm in diameter, hemispherical & with a flattened top. the cap is whitish in colour with coarse brownish scales. the gills are free & white, usually turning dark & green with maturity. it has a rare green spore print. the stipe ranges from 5 to 30 cm tall & bears a double-edged ring. its stem lacks the snakeskin pattern that is generally present on the parasol mushroom. flesh thick, firm at first, soft with age, white, unchanging or sporadically becoming reddish-brown to pale reddish-pink, almost orange in the base of the foot when cut or crushed."

*symptoms include : vomiting, diarrhoea & colic, often severe, occurring 1–3 hours after consumption.

Looks like a False Parasol or Chlorophyllum molybdites, this species is poisonous.

If it isn't False Parasol I'm still fairly sure it is from the Chlorophyllum genus and I wouldn't recommend eating it.

I hope this helps:)

13 September 2024 - Friday Field Notes

Honestly, don't know what's going on rn. Everything's been a blur the past few weeks.

Did go out on a nice seed collection adventure.

Collecting local seed from native plants is super important in restoration work. While it's possible to find the same species growing in different areas around the country, localized populations are specifically adapted to the regions they grow in. So for instance, while it's possible to find Hoary Tansyaster in a bunch of states, seeds that are collected in New York aren't going to do as well if you plant them Arizona, or vice versa. Having local ecotype seeds adapted to the climate region you're in means it's more likely for those seeds and plants to succeed. It also helps to protect the genetic biodiversity of plant populations.

Snowball Sand Verbena (Abronia fragrans)

Hoary Tansyaster (Machaeranthera canescen)

Prairie Sunflower (Helianthus petiolaris)

Hairy False Golden Aster (Heterotheca villosa)

Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) (I think.)

Some big ol' Chlorophyllum (sp?) mushrooms.
