Section PluteusObserver
mipiworldDescription
Definitely Pluteus, BUT I do not believe this is P. cyanopus or P. americanus. Mixed deciduous forest, mid-Michigan, growing from dead tree stump near drainage ditch. Help with ID? Another specimen of this species was found and sent to the mycoblitz fall 2023. Have not heard yet what the sequencing has to say about it.
