***lol, it's like "Russian Roulette with mushrooms". 33%, 40%, and 73% chance of ingesting a poisonous Amanita phalloides mushroom if you use one of those apps on an Amanita and it fails (as of the 2023 study). 😬 #mushrooms
#Mushrooms

"Results: Picture Mushroom was the most accurate of the three apps and correctly identified 49% (95% CI [0-100]) of specimens, compared with Mushroom Identificator (35% [15-56]) and iNaturalist (35% [0-76]). Picture Mushroom correctly identified 44% of poisonous mushrooms [0-95], compared with Mushroom Identificator (30% [1-58]) and iNaturalist (40% [0-84), but Mushroom Identificator identified more specimens of Amanita phalloides correctly (67%), compared to Picture Mushroom (60%) and iNaturalist (27%). Amanita phalloides was falsely identified, twice by Picture Mushroom and once by iNaturalist. "

. 2023 Mar: A comparison of the accuracy of mushroom identification applications using digital photographs

" Objective: To compare the accuracy of three popular mushroom identification software applications in identifying mushrooms involved in exposures reported to the Victorian Poisons Information Centre and Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria.

Background: Over the past 10 years, an increasing number of software applications have been developed for use on smart phones and tablet devices to identify mushrooms. We have observed an increase in poisonings after incorrect identification of poisonous species as edible, using these applications...."

a close-up of The Classic fly agaric, in a relatively young stage, about the size of a golf ball, but red with all the white spots, surrounded by oak leaves
The Classic fly agaric on a very pine needle cluttered urban forest floor, one large orange umbrella hovering over a smaller, younger red cap, almost like a mother protecting her child
an overhead view of a mature specimen of The Classic fly agaric, a rich, almost unnatural red with white speckles, surrounded by grass, oak leaves and acorns, and a bit glistening from the rain
The Classic fly agaric, same grove in the same needle-strewn floor, a variety of colors on the umbrella caps - reds, oranges, and a sickly bleached yellow-white

For #FungiFriday I wanted to post these False Parasol #mushrooms growing in the landscaping mulch at my local grocery store in #BatonRouge #Louisiana. These are reportedly poisonous, but are rather pretty.
Three large white mushroom caps rise above some dark brown mulch. A few dried cypress needles are seem on the mulch.
The same three mushrooms seen from the side at ground level. Their gills and brownish stems can be seen. In the background one can see a tree trunk and the foliage of another tree.

We're about to take off and the person in the window seat hasn't shown up, so I might be able to take some snaps during the flight 🤩 See you on the other side!

A close-up of small fungi growing on a weathered, textured tree trunk in a shaded woodland setting. The fungi feature pale, almost translucent caps with slender, brownish stems. The background is softly blurred, showcasing the lush greenery and dappled light of the forest floor, creating a serene and natural atmosphere. The image highlights the delicate and intricate details of the fungi amidst the rustic charm of the forest environment.

4/5 #Fungi

Two small mushrooms from a second fungi hunting trip to #EppingForest. The focus-stacking by hand worked particularly well on this one - it needed a bit of practice.
