Chantrelles A Summer Mushroom July

Found these in the Lakes Yesterday and plenty of them. Wonderful Mushroom to eat. The Mushroom itself is a  sort of modified set of gills.

Amanita -a deadly group

This beautiful mushroom is a young Panther Cap - it sits in a volval sack which has the appearance of a plant pot -beautiful but deadly. You should not pick this mushroom

Colorful Boletus

These are quite a difficult group to identify and include the Iodine, Scarletina, and Bitter boletus to name just three. The flesh can change colour when cut and this can be diagnostic.

This specimen shows a blackened base when cut and so is an Iodine Boletus
