Unknown mushroom beset by the moss Hypnum imponens
People keep emailing me images of mushrooms. They find me on the web and send me
buckets of mushroom photos. What's this mushroom? Can I eat this one? Please identify
the mushroom photos I have taken over my lifetime. Do you think this mushroom might
have been mutated by the rays from an alien spaceship? It's tragic, really. Because most
mushrooms can't be identified based on photographs alone. This one's no exception.
Move along now.
