RE: Mushroom Monday - Interesting Polypores and a Ramaria

Not all is edible, or used in medicines. Each has a beauty and helps keeps the earth clean doing good.

Your extensive knowledge of fungi around you is impressive, something I spend hours having to research.

Some are there just for interesting colors or shapes.

Pink does look pretty, knowing what you looking at when seeing them often enough is rewarding. We normally have mushrooms after lightning storms, yet this year I have yet to see one!

Yeah I'm usually reading lots of state guides on mushroom observer just in case I find something new. https://mushroomobserver.org/species_list/show_species_list/212

I joined a few forums and searched sites, the one above included, still lack knowledge when on the go, or forget what I had previously researched... peachy to say the least!

Those latin names are pretty difficult to memorize, I just remember that I've seen them before then have to search through mushroom observer again to find the name.

I use Yandex picture search to get a close idea, then move into local searching, never remember the names that is a certainty!
