Description

Found on the side of a trail under a lot of shade. When picked it smelled very strongly of cucumber, after taking it home whatever part of the cap had been jostled was a paler color than the rest of it. Spore print more salmon color in real life.

ID'd using Mushrooms of Cascadia.

Pink spored mushrooms, pg. 141. Reddish brown cap with a pale yellowish edge and velvety dark stipe, Macrocystidia cucumis pg. 144.

This white, short stemmed mushroom was found in a wooded area. Duff had to be cleared away to reveal the stipe and white gills of the mushrooms. The stalk broke very cleanly, and as a result of my hand nudging the mushroom.

Cucumber Cap (Macrocystidia cucumis)

Description

These little brown mushrooms were growing plentifully on some wood chips towards the north end of WWU campus. They caught my eye because of the red band around the edge of the cap. The cap was reddish-brown, bell shaped, and slightly velvety. The gills were tan/yellowish and were attached to the stalk. The stalk was pale reddish orange and central to the cap. I harvest 3 of them to make spore prints. The prints were dull red in color.

Identification:
-Basidiomycetes
-Agarics p. 58
--Spore print red
--Volva absent
--Gills attached to stalk
--Found on wood, fruiting body pinkish
-Tricholomataceae p. 129
--Not growing on other mushrooms
--Fruiting body not pitted
--Stalk present
--Stalk not rising from tuber
--Veil absent
--Gills not bruising grey or black?
--Stalk thin but tough
-Macrocystidia cucumis

Orange brown cap with thick stem found growing out of dark organic matter underneath a vining maple. Mushroom was not slimy or sticky, just wet from recent rain. Cap did not have spongy nor gilled underside. When the portion of cap attached to the stem was removed it revealed a spongy inside. No spore prints collected, just a light brown stain from the cap.
Cap: 1 and 2/16”

Western Cauliflower Mushroom (Sparassis radicata)

Date

October 3, 2021 01:24 PM PDT

Description

I found this epic fungus on an overcast day. It had rained earlier but stopped by the time we got there. I found this mushroom in close proximity to a lobster and a chanterelle, and although this was my first time finding one, I was fairly certain that it was a cauliflower mushroom. I will describe it: upon finding it, I noticed immediately that it did not have a visible stipe, and for that matter it had no gills. It was an off white color, slightly yellowing on the edges. The texture was that of cartilage and it had a very pleasant smell. It was growing in then mt. Baker national forest among hemlocks, Doug firs, and sword ferns. I could not get a spore print because it had no gills. To confirm my identification, I consulted “All that the rain promises and more.”
