Thanks! I appreciate you doing that.
Comment on Russula with a frosted look to the cap.
Bigboye57@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoI broke out my keys and there are a handful that fit the bill based off what I can gather from your photo, so I won’t venture a guess. That white powder though is a common trait called “bloom” for some Russula. Cool stuff I have never seen that in Indiana before. Beautiful picture.

It’s really common give up on Russula because of how impossible they are to get to species but you can learn to get them to section/group which I personally find worthwhile. It helps if you enjoy eating them like I do, I spent a lot of time figuring out how to ID Russula olympiana and the other PNW xerampelina group species because of how much I like using them to make vegetarian fish broth.
