They’re pretty out of focus but it looks like a curtain crust Stereum sp..

Being a dev on a competitive multiplayer game means getting wrecked every playtest by balance designers and community managers who used to be pros/streamers.

- Comment on More pictures of the tree mushrooms from the other day 2 days ago:
Thanks for the update! My observations from these photos:
- as was evident in the first photo, these mushrooms have a membranous partial veil which typically leaves a ring on the stem
- these mushrooms have whitish spores as you can see on the caps of lower mushrooms
- the gills are marginate (the edge of each gill is a different color than the face)
- the cap margins start inrolled and frequently become wavy and are somewhat striated (have little lines where the gills are)
Given these features, I still think they’re an Armillaria sp.. Compare A. cepistipes which is said to sometimes have marginate gills.

I use iNaturalist but it’s pretty hit or miss (the bark thing is one kind of mistake I see it make frequently).
- Comment on Shrooms growing on a tree 4 days ago:
They don’t, G. marginata grows on dead wood usually near the ground so this is another point against that id.
- Comment on Shrooms growing on a tree 4 days ago:
Oyster mushrooms don’t have rings and the gills tend to go nearly all the way down the stem. They also tend to grow on dead trees, not living ones like these.
- Comment on Shrooms growing on a tree 4 days ago:
They look a little big/stocky to be Galerina marginata IMO.
- Comment on Shrooms growing on a tree 4 days ago:
Let me guess, you put this into some computer vision app and it guessed a polypore from a photo of a gilled mushroom because it saw birch bark.
- Comment on Shrooms growing on a tree 4 days ago:
Maybe something like Armillaria mellea it’s hard to tell for sure.

Ah A. Ocreata is actually reported to have a poor taste.
Most of the deaths are from East Asian immigrants mistakenly assuming the mushrooms here are like the ones at home, and they mis-identify and then harvest & eat the Amanita spp. instead of what they thought they were harvesting (I actually don’t know the mushroom they mistake it for that is found in Asia). I’ve heard this factoid is pretty exaggerated, it’s not like East Asia doesn’t have both deadly and edible Amanitas

They’re supposed to smell better when they’re young and they’re generally reported to taste good.

It was section Phlegmacium but that’s a genus now and not all of the sticky-cap dry-stem ones ended up there so who knows.

Agreed, here’s an earthball cross-section for comparison:
- Comment on The pointiest Chroogomphus I have ever come across 2 weeks ago:
I think you’re right, that Suillus looks like S. tomentosus which grows with two-needle pine and I see a bunch of two-needle bundles in your photo. C. ochraceus is a complex but one of them is supposed to parasitize S. tomentosus so you’ve probably got whichever that one is.
- Comment on Possibly "scaly shield" (Pluteus petasatus) 2 weeks ago:
Hm I guess petasatus just has browner spores than most Pluteus, the spore print here looks similar.
- Comment on Possibly "scaly shield" (Pluteus petasatus) 2 weeks ago:
Was it growing on wood at least?
- Comment on The pointiest Chroogomphus I have ever come across 2 weeks ago:
Nice find, the host/parasite pairings for boletes are usually species-specific so if you can ID either mushroom to species, you’ll know what the other one is as well.
- Comment on Possibly "scaly shield" (Pluteus petasatus) 2 weeks ago:
Maybe it’s the lighting but that spore print looks more brown than pink. Otherwise it looks enough like P. Petasatus IMO.

- Comment on Interesting shelf fungi (Trichaptum sp.) 3 weeks ago:
I’m surprised there’s no algae on them given how much is on the tree, I’m used to seeing lots of green on the caps.
- Comment on Colony of waxcaps (Hygrocybe sp.) 3 weeks ago:
A couple of the small ones look super fuzzy, I wonder if there’s a mold attacking them.
- Comment on Could this be green elfcup? 3 weeks ago:
Could be, I’ve never seen Chlorociboria stain through bark like that but the wood without bark is the right color for it.

- Comment on [Episode] The Summer Hikaru Died • Hikaru ga Shinda Natsu - Episode 6 discussion 5 weeks ago:
At the beginning of the the episode we’re back to “maybe everything will be fine if I pretend this isn’t happening”. The problem with Yoshiki’s thought experiment is that it isn’t actually a good analogy to the situation: Nonuki isn’t Hikaru, it has its own personality and values and is just pretending to be Hikaru. Which becomes clear by the end of the episode when Nonuki once again tries to murder someone.

There’s no explicit reason AFAIK but Nonuki said “impurities” try to latch on to a person out of loneliness and Yoshiki’s sister looked at the wig ghost which may have made it try to latch on to her the way the long-necked lady did when Yoshiki’s looked at her.
