Collection location: Oak Bottom Campground, Siskiyou Co., California, USA [Click for map]
Who: John Harlan (harlanx6)
No herbarium specimen

Notes: This specimen had been attacked by a number of creatures including this gorgeous snail. When I set the mushroom and snail on the table, the snail immediately resumed the attack. When I returned a short time later the snail had disappeared, probably down the gullet of a Steller Jay.
