Hypomyces—possibly H. hyalinu As above Taken in North Judsen, Indiana, while on a camping trip. Thanks for sharing Linda Hemphill What you seem to have is a species of Hypomyces—possibly H. hyalinus. This species is a parasitic “mold” which attacks A. rubescens, which is poisonous. This species of “Lobster” mushroom may be poisonous due to its host. Other Lobster mushrooms (displayed on the edible fungus pages) are red, feeding on Lactarious or Russsulas, and are commonly eaten and are sold in grocery stores. 1fp Death Cap (Amanita phalloides) or Destroying Angel or Death Angel (Amanita ocreata) Deadly poisonous! 1_fp Death Cap (Amanita phalloides) or Destroying Angel or Death Angel (Amanita ocreata) Deadly poisonous!

There is some question as to the identity of this mushroom. Please share your opinion. 2fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous 3fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous 4fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous 5fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous 6fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous 7fp Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria) Poisonous |
