Hassayamper म्हणाले...: Honey mushrooms, Armillaria mellea. Edible and pretty tasty, especially when young like this.

This is an aggressive parasitic species and will surely kill this tree.; ९/९/२४, ४:३८ PM

amr म्हणाले...: I concur to genus. Could also be Armillaria gallica... I know gallica is the one I typically encounter in Minnesota, but I've forgotten the distinction.

When they fruit in MN woods, it's "Honey Mushroom Week"... everywhere all at once, and then a week or so later, they're all gone.

But for a week or so on either side, there's also Entoloma abortivum the "Abortive Entoloma" or "Shrimp of the Woods", which is one of my favorites. The effect of either an Entoloma parasitizing the honey mushroom (or vice versa... I know the explanation has been reversed at least once). White lumps on the ground that can look like turkey poops from a distance. Unique texture not that far from shrimp, but with wonderful mushroomy flavor.; १०/९/२४, ७:३२ AM
Rusty म्हणाले...: LOL. First think I thought of too.; १०/९/२४, ९:३५ AM
