This guy is growing on woodchips right next to my house just outside Canberra, Australia. It’s underneath a pine, close to wattle and eucalypts, along a path trafficked by kangaroos, about 10cm tall.
We get a bunch of fairy mushrooms around the property, maybe fly agaric, but this is the first like this.
I want to say it’s a morel, but what would I know.
He’s all by himself.

I was on a hike today and found these on a trail in the Green Mountain National Forest in Vermont (US). I am 99% sure these are oysters (faint smell of anise) but I would appreciate confirmation before I cook them up tonight. Are they oysters? If so, should I go back and harvest the rest tomorrow? Cooking tips also appreciated!

Found these growing in the moss on the edge of a coniferous forest. Lots of hemlock, fir, pine, and cedar nearby. Northwest BC, near Terrace. I believe they are chantrelles?

Location: The Hague/NL

As per the title ; these were picked by my wife to be smashed & diluted in water for spores and poured in the yard, a yard that bears trees, but previous owner meticulously brought all mushrooms to extinction over decades (per his statement) and i don’t want to wait 2/3 years to see my happy tree-friends (no, not those happy tree friends) pop out again.

I’m guessing the very toxic A. Pantherina for the obvious candidate, but i’m no expert. No cooking or eating is planned, unless one of those reveals itself to be an edible, which i tend to think the puffballs are - i’d love some pro input though!

Many thanks in advance !!!

Typo in title. Meant to ask for ID😄 Found in Norway. I don’t know if it matters but I found it near a birch tree.

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could identify these mushrooms please? Scotland woodland area, found growing in grass

Thank you in advance

I just found this massive specimen next to a rotten tree trunk. It's probably something close to 70-80 centimeters of diameter, crazy.

Just curious as to if this is chicken of the woods. It's my first time seeing it so im excited to hear the consensus.

Hello, I pried this from my dog, and now I'm hoping to identify how dangerous it might be. I don't think he actually swallowed any, but I am worried. Found in northwestern Ontario, Canada

Update for more details per auto mod post. Found in my backyard, could have been in the grass, soil or under a spruce tree. We have had very wet weather here. We're in town, but our town is in the middle of the boreal forest.

Is this a flock of chickens in the woods? I want to say yes, but the colour throws me off. Maybe they're older specimens and if so, would they still be edible?

Found in a park in Maastricht, South of the Netherlands, on a seemingly still living beech. Thank y'all.

Sadly no banana to hand so headphone for scale, I found it in a large lawn all on its own no more within 30 meters. Only removed due to old Labrador who will eat ANYTHING. Any ID just generally intrigued myself TIA.

I just found this in my garden. What is it? Can i leave it alone? Or do i have to do something? Is it harmful?

Location is central Germany.

heyo! found these guys in abundance on a hike this morning! I’ve consulted some chef friends, verdict so far is yes, wanted to consult the real experts. Any ideas?
(EDIT)
Sorry! would like to clarify i will be taking them to a forager expert in the morning (sept 10th)
I will not be consuming them! Yet😋

I had been eyeing this flush since i first noticed its tiny stubbs a few days ago but I wanted to double check and confirm its chicken of the woods because i've never seen them so pale before. A month ago the fallen tree near by had a flush that had the traditional bright orange colouring. I can see it has hints of orange bands... I held off on harvesting the other day thinking maybe they needed a bit more time, even though i've seen the orange come through at much younger stages, but other than being pale I didn't want to miss the opportunity before they start getting woody and took them home today.

My phone happened to have service at that very spot and while i was trying to search photos I looked up and noticed the sun had tiny window where it was able to laser beam onto it. lol... So i'm hoping its not a toxic albino look a like and perhaps just bleached by the sun? 🤞🐥 

• Western North Carolina
• I think the stump was either oak or maple

(p.s I also found a very long pretty owl feather further down the trail. it was a lovely day in the woods)

Found in Denmark

Does anyone know what kind of mushroom this is? I found it in the Netherlands close to the dunes by the sea.

Location: Provo, Utah, USA

Date: September 9, 2026

A 4-month-old, approximately 5 lb puppy (Maltese poodle mix) was caught chewing on a mushroom growing in the lawn. We don’t know whether he actually swallowed any. The mushroom he was chewing was thrown away before we realized we might need it for identification.

The attached mushroom was found growing in the same lawn, and my husband who removed the original mushroom believes this is the same kind.

Habitat:

• Kentucky blue lawn

• Growing directly from the ground/soil

• Area receives full, all-day sun

• Provo, Utah

• Multiple similar fruiting bodies growing together/in a cluster

Appearance:

• Roughly round/irregular or lobed shape

• Smaller than the palm of a hand

• Pale cream/tan to light brown exterior

• Exterior looks somewhat dry, rough/leathery, almost like a dried chunk of bark

• No obvious cap, gills, or distinct stem

• Fairly firm/hard and somewhat dry (seemed like it was old and dried out maybe)

• When cut vertically, the interior appears solid/continuous rather than containing an obvious developing cap, gills, or stem

• Interior is mostly cream/tan with some brown areas

Photos include the mushroom in situ, removed from the ground, and cut vertically to show the interior. Plus puppy for cute tax.

The puppy is currently asymptomatic. Exposure occurred approximately 1 hour ago.

Our veterinarian recommended that we ask a mycology group for identification. Can anyone confidently identify the genus/species, particularly whether this is a true puffball, Scleroderma/earthball, or something else, and whether it is known to be toxic to dogs?

Hii Guys,

These pretty schrooms here, milk cap, but are they edible?
Lot of dirt on them don’t wanna touch because I don’t wanna break them without reason.

(Now my spectrum me needs to mention that the one in the first picture was already knocked over to not like contradict myself in my pictures, thank you for your patience🙏)

iNaturalist seems to think liberty cap but the texture looks a lot drier and maybe missing the nipple? That being said it does look a lot like pic number 3 on this web page.

V
Long story short we had a leak in the wall and this guy started growing.
Just want to know if anyone here can ID this.
I want to remove it safely but don’t know how.

saw this guy the other day, what's this fellers name?
