Oh, sorry if you suggested that too. I kept forgetting the name. I don’t remember any Oak trees nearby, but I could have missed one perhaps.
Yeah – Hydnotrya is what I called it when I first saw it in your hand. After looking at photos, I think Genea looks like a better fit.
Found at Mitrula Marsh under Pine and Fir. Growing about 4 inches underground in decomposed conifer litter and not attached at any point. No base, the fungus is hollow with a small hole in one side.
Wild Rose? according to Trappe et al, it is an oak associate.
odor? did the base have a hyphal tuft?
another cool truffle!
conifer tree associate, general shape works.
Hydnotrya lacks hyphal tuft at base (or at least, one isn’t mentioned as occuring).
Color pinkish-brown to brown; odor and taste mild?
