Commonly known as the fly agaric. Poisonous and psychoactive, this is the quintessential toadstool mushroom.
Also known as the oyster mushroom. May lack a stem; if it has one, the gills run decurrent (downward) along it. Edible and very nutritious, but watch out for lookalikes!
Also known as the common morel, yellow morel, and sponge morel. One of the most highly sought-after edible mushrooms! Do cook them before eating, though.
Commonly known as the umber-brown puffball. Edible when young, these mushrooms lack a stem, as they develop their spores internally. They are called puffballs for how the spores 'puff' out when the fruiting body bursts.
Commonly known as the giant puffball. Most grow to be 3.9 to 28 inches in diameter, though some can get up to 59 inches and weigh up to 44 pounds! They are edible when young.
Also known as the white coral fungus or crested coral fungus, it is part of a loosely defined family of mushrooms called coral mushrooms. Coral mushrooms can be edible, but may have tough flesh... and/or laxative effects!
Also known as penny bun, porcino, and king boletus. Good for eating and drying. Highly valued by chefs worldwide.
Commonly known as the death cap. One of the most poisonous of all known toadstools! Thought to be responsible for the majority of mushroom-related human deaths, including Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI. It also resembles several edible species!
Also known as the destroying angel. It is considered to be the most toxic North American Amanita mushroom, and causes CELLULAR NECROSIS upon consumption. The fact that it has the most awesome name of any mushroom has absolutely no bearing on its being chosen for this app.
Also known as the bleeding Hydnellum, the bleeding tooth fungus, and the Devil's tooth. Only the juvenile fruit bodies exhibit the characteristic "bleeding"; the mature form is brown and nondescript. This is also our favorite mushroom~ <3
Also known as the portobello mushroom. It's actually just the mature form of the button mushroom! Edible and delicious.
Also known as the common mushroom, button mushroom, table mushroom, crimini mushroom, cultivated mushroom... and many more! One of the most commonly and widely cultivated and consumed mushrooms in the world.
