Need Help with an ID?
Here's what we need to know in order to suggest an identification
Mushroom identification is a mystery to many for a reason. There are various factors that go into identifying a mushroom, such as detailed morphology (that's all of the parts of the physical fruiting body) and ecology (where the mushroom is growing, particularly amongst what flora and during what season). Most of the time, a single photo cannot give us enough information.

Think of it this way: If a drone took a picture of a person, would you be able to recognize them just by their hair color and the shape of their head from a birds-eye-view? Probably not!
