Brown webcap mushrooms Cortinarius subgenus Phlegmacium, could be Cortinarius xanthodryophilus, on Kiwanis Nature Trail. College Station, Texas

🎞️ #2221-02

This image presents a close-up view of two brown webcap mushrooms (Cortinarius subgenus Phlegmacium) situated on the ground.

The mushroom caps are yellowish-brown with a smooth texture and an irregularly rounded shape. The gills underneath the cap are pale green, arranged in a radially patterned structure. As the mushroom decomposes, it releases dark brown spores from its gill edges, which can be observed as black patches on the underside of the cap.

The stems are short and white with a slightly yellowish hue. The mushrooms' caps rest on top of dried leaves or twigs that have been compressed into the ground. The background is made up of dirt and leaf litter.

It appears that this image was taken in late fall or early winter, as suggested by the bare trees in the background.

The overall appearance of these mushrooms indicates they are likely decaying, which can be attributed to their location on the forest floor and their age. – AI vision

🇪🇸 Descripción en español / Spanish Description

Los hongos con sombrero de araña marrón del subgénero Cortinarius Phlegmacium podrían ser Cortinarius xanthodryophilus en el Kiwanis Nature Trail. College Station, Texas, 6 de enero de 2018. Esta imagen presenta una vista detallada de dos hongos con sombrero de araña marrón (subgénero Cortinarius Phlegmacium) situados en el suelo. Los sombreros son marrones amarillentos, con una textura lisa y una forma redondeada irregularmente. Las guillas bajo la tapa son verde pálido, dispuestas en una estructura radial. A medida que el hongo se descompone, libera esporas marrón oscuro desde los bordes de las guillas, lo que puede observarse como manchas negras en la parte inferior del sombrero. Los tallos son cortos y blancos con un matiz ligeramente amarillento. Los sombreros descansan sobre hojas secas o ramitas comprimidas en el suelo. El fondo está formado por tierra y hojarasca. Parece que esta imagen se tomó a finales del otoño o principios del invierno, como se sugiere por los árboles desnudos en el fondo. El aspecto general de estos hongos indica que es probable que estén descomponiéndose, lo que puede atribuirse a su ubicación en el suelo del bosque y su edad. – Spanish translation
