brianf Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Hey all, Been mind blowingly busy. That didn't stop me from coming across some very late season (at least for my area) horse mushrooms (i think). Not very typical looking, but the remaining characteristics line up. Very strong aniseed odor for sure. No yellow staining, no attached yellow rhyzomorphs. At the very least definitely an agaricus mushroom, probably one that is safe enough for me to play around with and only suffer minor gastro issues, what the heck, it's the end of the season and I have three days off. I post these in the identifying mushrooms catagory as I'm not 100 percent sure. They're usually more silvery/light tan colored around here, but they look and smell the part. Anyone else have any suggestions? Hope all are doing well, anyone who is still in season, good luck out there. It's been between 60 and 45 for the past two days and we've had some fairly decent rains recently. Probably going to head out and do one last hunt tomorrow. Still some potental for at least more horse mushrooms, blewits, and possibly even hericium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 These are a little darker that I've seen, possibly because it's been a week or more since they fruiting. Looks like they may be starting to dry out. But I have seen many examples of A. arvensis with bronze-colored caps. Here's a couple examples.
