I've just been on your mushroom photograp...Hi,<br /><br />I've just been on your mushroom photography page:<br />http://barnsis.redbubble.com/sets/61202/works?page=1<br />and noticed a few taxonomic mistakes. Usually I wouldn't bother saying anything but seeing as mushroom misidentification is a dangerous game and your picture appear on Google - I'd like to point out some mistakes: <br />* Most importantly you've listed a probably deadly Amanita as edible. That is your 'Pluteus petasatus' and your second 'Scleroderma polyrhizum' are all picture of Amanitas. Something like Amanita abrupta.<br />* All of your 'Chlorophyllum molybdites' are in fact Macrolepiota procera, which IS edible. Enjoy future finds :-)<br />* There is no such mushroom as 'Suillus Boletus' - those are two separate Genera. Slippery jacks are Suillus luteus, but I doubt that's what you have. If you need a name for it, it is a Bolete of some sort at least.<br />* The 'agaric' at the beginning is an agaric yes. More specifically it is an Amanita to give you a better name for it. Probably an edible one, but you should be sure before eating it.<br />* As for the others, I don't know, but I'd be skeptical of any of them except the 'Pycnoporus cinnabarinus' which appears to be correct. If you'd like your photos identified, I suggest that you post them on Mushroom Observer, or some other identification site. There are lots of really helpful Mycophiles around<br /><br />They are very nice photos - just please stay safe and help other stay safe too :-)<br /><br />I kindly ask that you update your captions, please.Gumajakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18006407106480246164noreply@blogger.com
