Do I see gills? or is it a polypore?

So interesting to see how nature diverges: We don't see this Lepiota on the central Oregon coast, though we have a similar one with a smooth stipe. They also are pretty much out of season here now. Looks like it's Mushroom Season in the redwoods eh?

My first thought is a Hygrocybe (waxy cap) species.

Thank you. I do people portraits, and this reminded me of them, too.

What magnification did you use to take these photos? I'm shopping for a microscope.

Bison commented on by shebebusynow Alaska, USA6 years ago

They sure are a long way from their natural home! Kind of startling to see them in Alaska. Bison are never truly domesticated; they have only been "ranched" for the last few decades. They don't observe fences particularly, and are naturally inclined to roam in order to find food, especially during winter. What do they graze on there I wonder?

The black twinberry is quite common near the beach of the central Oregon coast, where it is native. It is a member of the honeysuckle family. The Clerodendrum is a native of Asia, and it doesn't have double berries.

Thank you, maplemoth. It is kind of surprising how many colors the rainforest has to offer not even including leaves & flowers. There are at least 3 species of moss here, and a couple of lichen; then there's the red cedar.

What beautiful desert blooms! I had no idea these grew there. At least they are not nipped off by slugs like they are in our rain forest climate.
