norwegian: rød stubbemusserong (Tricholomopsis rutilans)
in english this fine fungi is often fittingly called 'plums and custard', because of it's attractive coloration. it may conceivably be edible, however sorry to say, it is said to taste like rotting wood. better to just take a photo and look elsewhere for dessert.
rynkehette? (Mycena galericulata)??
i am unsure of the identification here, mostly because of the interesting peeling of the hats. i am pretty sure the genus is correct but if anybody has a better suggestion about these please let me know
norwegian: stor løksopp Marasmius alliaceus,
in english, garlic parachute.
i was lucky enough to find this small but fabulous fungi in two different places. i had never seen it before nor tasted it. it is reported to taste like garlic and can be used as a substitute for it. however because it is so rare that it is red listed here in norway i let it be and hope everybody else does also.
this common well known factious fungi is easier to identify, well sort of. in norwegian we call it ruterørsopp Xerocomellus chrysenteron
in english: red crackling bolete
the mosaic like design of the hat and the cracks exposing red flesh. make it easily recognizable. while edible, as far as taste goes i would not call it first-rate so i was satisfied just finding and fotoing it.
norwegian: silkekjuke Trametes versicolor
turkey tail is common around the world. while not exactly edible it has many medicinal qualities, so check it out
norwegian: stubbeskjellsopp Kuehneromyces mutabilis
sheathed woodtuft is a particularly fun fungi because where there is one there are many, often very many and if you are lucky very. very many. and they taste good too. it grows directly on wood, especially stumps and resembles fried eggs, but there is a deadly poisonous look-alike Galerina marginata. eating that would not be fun, so beware and be certain or be gone.
norwegian: vedmusling Gloeophyllum sepiarium
if you own a wooden house or fence or whatever, the rusty gilled polypore is not your typical friendly fungus. while it certainly has it's charm and plays an important role in nature, you do not want it rotting away your house. once it becomes established there it is very hard (expensive) to get rid of. on the other hand it is proven effective against cancer so give it some love and respect.
sommereik quercus robur english oak
i threw this in just in case you thought i was a fanatical fungi fotographer
i have taken all these photos during a couple of october walks in the forest called ulfsbæk outside of larvik, norway. the camera was either an S22 ultra or my lumix FZ300. some minor editing was done on the free version of photoshop express
