Thank you for doing my IDs on iNat. And for hearting my photos just now!
I’ve been finding lots of species of amanita in Tennessee Valley but not gonna eat them.

Thank you! I love these and the tiny creps that grow inside out under logs.

And I found more in my two months in Eugene than here, though I’m told it has to do with a certain amount of rainfall.

Shirley Jackson’s daughter’s husband is named Grover.

Pretty sure that is leocarpus. Ironically, I found my best sample on the side of the road in Eugene on a piece of fir. And we’re having a terrible winter for slimes in NorCal. Getting lots of hygrocybes, tho!

They grow wild all over the world.
