RE: What is this fungus? If anyone knows - tell me please!

in #nature8 years ago (edited)

Most mushrooms are identified from underneath, and not from the top - if it looks like bubbling butter underneath = YES; if it has lots of lines that radiate in towards the middle = NO!

Sort:  

It has lines, but know a lot of mushrooms with lines which are edible.

Yes! I was waiting for that. There are exceptions. Find the oldest mushroom hunter in your local forest and ask them - that's what I did here in Poland - and I know them all now :)

I could ask my grandfather, but I didn't take this mushroom with me :(

Take the photo with you - he'll be able to tell you just from the appearance - only the old mushroom masters can do that. I can do it for Poland, but not the for the UK or Russia - every country is different! Those tricky mushrooms eh!

Ok, thanks.I live in Ukraine but my house is in 70 km from Przemysl.
