Mushrooms And Fungi Of Any Kind

Mushroom time.
A cauliflower fungus (sparassis crispa). Bon appetite!

"Bon appetite": it is no competition for the Boletus edulis and the few similar Boletus spp., as well for bunch of other wild mushrooms!
And cep/porcino = steinpilz:)! Find more and make a good dish!
BTW when going to Bulgaria I was dreaming for some fungi incl. Amanita caesarea - just to take a photos (beautiful mushroom!)! The only fungus (except of some wood-rotting species that persist on the substrate for long time) I saw only Boletus erythropus (or whatever a name it got after the +/-recent revisions of the Boletaceae). And it was found by my wife who drop it next to the bungalow that we were renting in Rila mts. Next morning it was eaten by a squirrel (I already posted a photo)!

Here in southern Germany in some regions you still have to be careful about radioactively contaminated mushrooms from the fallout of the Chernobyl disaster in 1986.
So in those regions it is not recommended to eat wild mushrooms collected there.
I suppose such regions also exist in Bulgaria. Maybe they're not that sensitive about that topic over there.

A lot of funghi in the woods. Did a couple of stacks:
R5 + RF35 1.8 macro are a perfect pair for larger funghi.

and another friend of mushrooms (25 frames@ f/5.6)

Tremiscus helvelloides ?
EOS R + Macro Elmarit 2,8/60 Handheld, 1/15, f 11, ISO 1600 (knees aching...)View attachment 211088
Seems to be that one but now you should call it Guepinia helvelloides. Never-mind let these changes of the name to the mushroom experts: when they have no other things to do they use to change the fungal names (joking off coarse but in some cases it's pretty much the truth :p).

Same with orchids. Every 3-4 years, you'd need a new set of identification books :rolleyes:. DNA analysis is the culprit...
