Telamonia     Subgenus



Cortinarius husseyiKey to Gilled Mushrooms     Key
This is a key to gilled mushrooms, that is, mushrooms having a definite cap with a fertile surface consisting of gills. The fruiting body usually also has a stem, although that may be lateral or absent (usually, then, the mushroom is growing from wood). You can use this key to identify mushrooms that you find.



TricholomaAgaricales     Order

Diagnosis

Comments

A lot of these are light brown or yellow. If your Telamonia doesn't key out convincingly, it may be a Leprocybe. Or, given that I don't have 1100 entries of Cortinarius in here, it may just not be in this database

Or it may be new to science..

Narrow down your identification:


Cortinarius armillatusCortinarius armillatus
Cap up to 6" across; reddish brown at the center or in youth, fading to yellowish tan towards the margin
Stem with several reddish bands of universal veil material on stalk
Growing with beech and pine

Cortinarius evernius
Cap up to 4 1/2" across; purplish brown where moist, more ochre where drier; quite conical and pointy when young, but aging flat
Stem often quite long in proportion to cap size; covered with long white scraps of universal veil; flesh lilac, or more purple where moist
Growing with conifers and/or in bogs
