When: 2007-10-15
Collection location: Clinton, Whidbey Island, Island Co., Washington, USA [Click for map]
Notes:
Found in mature mixed coniferous second growth forest of Douglas Fir, Western Red Cedar, Western Hemlock.
Pileus is about 3 to 5cm and the stipe is quite thick and heavy. Gills run down the stipe and there was no discoloration when broken. I detected no distinguishing odor, but my nose is not great. I did not break the stipe though, nor is there a spore print sorry, too many to id and photograph…
I am guessing Clitocybe nebularis, it was as close as I could come, but am not satisfied with it.
It really does look like Clitocybe nebularis doesn’t it.
My reservation was mostly the smell, it did not smell as far as I could tell. Certainly not as bad as some descriptions. And it is said to not fruit before December, but that’s probably variable too.

Sure looks like the Cloudy Clitocybe = Clitocybe nebularis from the photo. You should mention WHY you are not satisfied with it then we would have more to go on.

When they are that young they often don’t have a strong odor. But when they get older….
