This mushroom perfectly represents the weather we've been having in northwestern Connecticut....Super dry and crusty. It was 8cm tall, had a brown cracked cap, dingy cream-colored pores, and a cream/brown stem. The bottom of the stem looks like it had scabers, so this may be Leccinum sp.
Growing on the ground in a deciduous forest.

Thanks. Nope, no bruising.
Beautiful! Did it bruise/stain at all?
