Lactarius Mushroom

Lactarius sp.

Description:

These mushrooms had a pink hue and reddish color around the margin of the cap. Pink-cream colored gills. Stem was hollow. When I knocked one over, it immediately started bruising red and greenish blue along the stem and gills, and the gills started leaking red fluid.

Habitat:

Spotted in a deciduous forest on the banks of the Hudson River.
