I am Mushroom @amushroomaday.bsky.social · Oct 22
This account is a fun little account where I post a mushroom pic a day (when possible). All pictures are mine- do NOT reuse without my permission.

I am NOT an expert. All mushrooms are safe to touch, sniff, etc... Make sure you confirm ID before eating.

It's a Hypocrea anamorph. Hypocrea rufa should be a teleomorph of Tricholoma viride but there are multiple Hypocrea species that look like Hypocrea rufa and even lots of differently looking Hypocrea species have the "green mold" looking anamorph.

Trichoderma viride 🌿

Mold, not a mushroom, but cool nonetheless. Also featuring some Armillaria rhizomorph.
