And this is only with my fairly crappy phone camera. Imagine what you could do at night with a good camera and some nice lighting!
Hmm I don’t know… I do think they look more like xylaria
May I ask why you cut it? I read that it’s seen as a delicacy in some places
Tbf the same thing exists for mushrooms, there are various apps. It’s dangerous to rely on them but I use them for a first idea of what I might be looking at and then go from there. Quite useful sometimes
Thanks for the hint, next time I will!
I’m jealous, I have yet to find (and taste) one of those!
Nice! These are even more deserving of the name “elf cup”
I just found this on Wikipedia:
It is this compound that is responsible for the characteristic bluish-green stain of wood infected by this species, used today in decorative woodworking such as Tunbridge ware and parquetry. The use of this wood, known as “green oak”, goes back to 15th century Italy, where it was used in intarsia panels made by Fra Giovanni da Veroni
I’m sure some would/could try, but at least for anything specific and with any certainty you would need to post more pictures with different perspectives and details!
I’m not sure if you are referring to the two images? If so, they are both pictures of the posionous Sulfur Tuft (maybe my post was confusing). The edible species has some slightly different coloring, but that’s really not enough for me to be able to tell the difference with confidence.
Wikipedia says “It resembles the common Northern Hemisphere species Russula emetica.[3]” … so not edible as well?
So interesting to think about funghi growing in eucalyptus forests on the other side of the world
Beautiful!
Don’t worry about it, I was just hoping not to encourage people to post against the rules ;)
I’d actually be interested in helping moderate this community, I have no experience with that but I’d like to learn and as I said I am happy that this place exists!
DM me if you like
I’m looking to get into that as well. Right now the forest is growing enough for me but as soon as season ends I will start :)
Looking forward to your progress updates!
I totally get that, it’s the same form me! Before I started being interested in and actually looking for these boletes, I had no idea. These depictions of big brown mushrooms growing between moss somewhere in the woods were always more of a fantasy thing for me.
No, I think that would be the scarletina bolete.
Although I am not sure, I didn’t cut it and it’s the first one I saw.
True! So technically this isnt even the right place for this post.
Well if this isn’t the most beautiful thread I have seen on Lemmy… thank you everyone. I’m not crying!
