Mal | I can see what you mean, Mal, because there is something about the cap that looks distinctly Lactarius like, but for me the gills definitely suggest Paxillus, nevertheless. |

| | | Re: Three Fungi for ID I would go with Paxillus too- the edge of the pileus has a distinctive texture/pattern which in my experience only P. involutus exhibits. |

Mal | I'm so glad you said that too Mal. I know exactly what you mean and what Andreas means. It's so hard to explain, but you've summed it up in a nutshell |  | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
