A place to get genus/species identification from pictures of fruiting bodies! It helps to include good quality pictures of the mushroom in it's native environment, the location you found them, photos of both the top and underside. It is also useful to know what the mushroom was growing on - wood, dung or on the ground? Nearby trees are also helpful to know.

The more information you provide the more confident our ID's will be!

Found in a rock patch by tye sidewalk in Denver, CO

Right outside my apartment. Lots of dogs in this area so it may be good to remove them if they’re possibly poisonous

Can someone help me ID

I threw contaminated substrate in a section of my garden. I threw two strains. One known as Puerto Rico cubensis and I also threw pearl oyster. Can some one help me identify which one this is?
