Summary[edit]

Description

Gymnopilus magnus (Peck) Murrill

Image location: West Oneonta, New York, USA

These were located just a couple feet off the road in a front yard. I initially thought they had to be something else, something terrestrial. There was absolutely no wood that they were growing on at all (at least as much as I could tell). A small hard mass was at the base of one of the larger stems which I thought might involve a piece of wood but I was able to cut through it fairly easily with a knife. I believe it was just a mycelial mass. I’ve read that these can have the appearance of being terrestrial if they were growing on underground or very well decayed wood. I just found it odd that I located no wood at all. They also had to be a good number of feet from the nearest standing tree. One thing I can note is that they took a good bit of wrestling to pick. I usually have an easier time picking a mushroom if it is indeed terrestrial.

Recognized by sight: Type collected in Westchester, Co.
