    Morchella.

    crassipes

    The irregular
    pits and
    Agaricus rodmani

    Its short, thick stem, its thick flesh and narrow gills, and the wide or double ring on the stem. The width of the
    gills scarcely exceeds one third the thickness of the flesh of the cap, a characteristic peculiar to this species.
    Also the wide or double ring is located below the middle of the stem; no other species of Agaricus has such a
    low waistline! The cap normally expands while still an inch or two beneath the surface of the soil and is lifted
    up as the stem elongates, carrying a clump of earth above it. In size this mushroom resembles the preceding
    species, and as far as edibility is concerned the two could be considered identical. It is a common occupant of
    cities, and is found growing on lawns and along the grassy borders of streets.
    Cantharellus
    Cibarius

    The funnel-
    shaped cap,

    Lactarius

    Pleurotus
    Lenzites betulina

    Stemless cap, the exceeding tough, leathery texture, the gills, which are just as tough as the cap and often
    interbranched to form pores, and its growth on wood. The cap are 1 or 2 inches wide and from ¼ to ½ inch thick
    where they are attached to the wood on which they grow. The upper side in fresh specimens is woolly and
    beautifully zoned in orange, gray, and tan. Though edible.
    Amanita phalloides

    The cap is from 2-6 inches wide, a pale grayish brown near the center but nearly white toward the
    mergin, convex when young and later sloping downward from the center like an inverted saucer, in old
    specimens the margin is raised up slightly above the rest of the cap. The surface is sticky when moist, but
    in dry weather it must be dampened to reveal this quality. The gills are white and do not touch the stem.
    The spherical base is buried beneath the surface of the ground, therefore he soft white volva
    surrounding it is usually visible only if one digs up the whole plant. The veil that connects the edge of the
    young unexpanded cap with the stem breaks as the cap expands and forms a ring on the stem . This ring
    is at first fairly prominent and has narrow, parallel, radial furrows on the upper side, but it soon withers
    and eventually may disappear completely.
    For me this mushroom look like 3 tipe of species than can be counfused

    Butyriboletus appendiculatus

    Imleria badia

    Boletus edulis

    Cap is convex to flattened, brown to yellowish brown , they have a dry to slightly sticky surface texture that may
    develop cracks with age. The stipe is thik at the top near the attachment to the cap, and ranges from thicker at
    the base to equal throughout,to tapered at the bottom.
