Be more active on here anyway - it's a much nicer environment and there are lots of #botanists, #mycologists, #entomologists etc here (and not on X) who will be interested in your posts.
Calling all #mycologists! This weird, mostly subterranean fungus peers out from the soil after rain. Location: Las Vegas, NV. Quarter included for scale. Any idea what the mystery fungus might be?
More on the mosquito-killing #fungus, Metarhizium.
Again, what's to stop Metarhizium from turning into an invasive species where its spores are implemented in mosquito control?
...any #mycologists out there who can comment?

At last! Hampton Heath has - at last - had enough rain for its first #CHEGD ( #waxcap ) grassland fungi of the autumn.
Silky Pinkgill (Entoloma sericeum) - unless any actual #mycologists know better!

What look like pale lemony-green florets of fungi with black spots on them, growing on the bark of old fallen timber.
A mycological mystery on #UKFungiDay - at least, it is to us! Seen growing on fallen timber at the Wildlife Trust's Gelli Hir nature reserve, Gower.
is it a fungus? Or a lichen? Or a fungus on lichen? Pale lemony-green with black spots. Thoughts please #mycologists ?
Any #mycologists here who could ID this mushroom for me please? Possibly from the macrolepiota procera species?
Weird looking grey/beige mushroom
Another of those odd mushrooms, right beside the first.
Came across these on a grassy roadside near Kildare Town today.
Never seen those odd 'shrooms before. Any thoughts, #mycologists of @bsky.app ?
Calling #mycologists and anyone working on plant fungal interactions, please help spread the word - opportunity to come work with these wonderful people @minyaaa.bsky.social @roseamarks.bsky.social @dallingjim.bsky.social
I started this #Mycologists Starter Pack, aiming to get all professional fungal researchers on BlueSky in one place. DM if you want to be added.

A bright red mushroom that we believe to be known as “the sickener”
Not 100% certain, we believe this might’ve been our first #Sickener sighting? Would love some help from #Mycologists

Any #mycologists out there? Best I can tell, these huge mushrooms growing in the yard are #amanita virgineoides? Cap measures 8.25" and stem 8".

White mushroom with flat saucer-size top.
View from side. The downside of the head is brown.
Downside with gill.
Dear #Mycologists, this fine fungal specimen is growing in my front garden. All I know about #fungi is that I am only seeing the appendage. What kind of #mushroom is this? Location: urban Northeastern Germany close to a fir tree.
💛 I also read that these small, yellow, gilled mushrooms were first spotted in greenhouses and gardens as early as the late 1700s.
Are there any #mycologists or #myco-enthusiasts that can confirm whether or not the mushrooms in my photos are the yellow parasol?! 🍄🟫
Mushrooooooms! #Mycologists, which #mushroom is this, and what are the benefits/properties of consumption? If safe to consume.
Blue stained plant root covered in darker blue circles as viewed under a microscope. Probably mycorrhizal spores.
Hey any #mycologists who study Arbuscular #mycorrhizae interested in chatting/sharing photos? I am working on some mycorrrhizal colonization counts and something always tends to appear that I am not positive identifying... Mostly self taught and would love to chat.
Waiting for #mycologists to dog pile you with comments like: "I'm gonna need to see the underside before I will believe they're Trametes."
#fungi #mushroom #mycology
any #fungi connaisseurs around or #mycologists? very curious about these ones
Are there any #mycologists w access to lab testing mold from some form of water damage? Yeah I know I'm looking for a #doctoralcandidate / #phd student rather than someone who also has specific personal interests but I'm a commie we can barter. Can access researchgate #medsky #academicsky #labrats
The #InkCapFairy is a member of the "mushroom mimic" family. Their textured wings allow them to perfectly imitate a shaggy ink cap whenever they sense danger. While nearly all fairies are wary of humans, mushroom mimics are particularly fearful of the human subspecies known as #Mycologists
Calling #African #Mycologists! This #microscopy training course is designed with you in mind. Please spread the word to your #fungal focused colleagues!
A little day dream of mine is having a mushroom farm that I can live off of by selling to local restaurants. Do any other #mycologists or #mushrooms fans ever think of this? I'm wanting to start a small bucket grow project on my patio to see if I can grow oysters from samples I found in the wild.
Close up of potential "Ringless Honey Mushrooms" cluster
Going through some older photos and found this gem! Ringless Honey Mushroom, maybe...

Ghostly white, almost translucent mushroom growing on a decomposing tree. The mushroom is about 10 cm in width and is curling up and down irregularly. There is also some bright green moss on the log.
A close up of the mushroom surface to show that the surface is hairy. The hairs are clumpy and maybe 3 mm in length?
#Mycologists, what is this mushroom?
It is on a decomposing log (not sure what tree species) in BC, Canada. We just got a lot of rain.
#FungiFriends
I think my low-key favorite thing on this platform is just the people who post glamour shots of wild mushrooms 🍄
Stay cool my #mycologists friends.
#mushrooms
I just followed all the paleontologists, biologists, and zoologists I could find but the #mycologists seem to be hiding. Where are you all at? I need more #mushrooms on my feed. 🍄🟫
Happy to discover bsky and getting to interact with al the #mycologists and other interesting sciences again. Its like finding your friends back at a festival :)
Any #mycologists that can tell me what kind of #fungi this is? I’ve never seen a #mushroom like this. Thanks!
#Medicinal #mushrooms aren’t illegal in Australia (yet).
But:
1. Do they work for #pain?
2. Where is a good source? There’s a million #mycologists popping up everywhere. Who to trust?
This stuff isn’t regulated afaik so I don’t want to get poisoned.
