We found over 80 species on our walk at Yellow
Hammer Corral and Heart's
Content: 54 at Yellow Hammer, and 29 at Heart's Content.
Many thanks to the folks at the Yellow Hammer Ranch; they
were welcoming and glad to have us explore. If you want
to arrange riding there, call Dave at 814-463-3703. Here
are some photos:

Common Mycena
Mycena
inclinata

Splash Cups
Cyathus
striatus

|
Ravenel's Stinkhorn
Phallus
ravenelii
It is not always an honor to have
a species named after you. As we heard it, this
stinkhorn was named by a monk who thoroughly disliked
another monk, named Ravenel...

Bull's eye Lichen
Yes, this is a lichen, not a pure
fungus. However, since lichens are composed of fungi
living in association with algae or cyanobacteria,
we figured it could be included. Besides, they look
cool.

Decorated Pholiota
Leucopholiota
decorosa
|
Orange Mock Oyster
Phyllotopsis
nidulans
|
|
Headlike Cordyceps
Cordyceps
capitata
growing on Elaphomyces
granulatus
This is an example of why you should
dig up the base of a mushroom to identify it. Unless
you know the truffle is at its base, this cordyceps
is easy to misidentify.
