On a mossy pine log in the Sam Houston National Forest, I discovered a group of Black-edged Pluteus mushrooms (Pluteus atromarginatus) thriving in their natural habitat. The mushrooms were found on November 13, 2020, during my visit to the Caney Creek Trail (Little Lake Creek Loop Trail). These fascinating fungi boast a striking appearance with their black-edged caps and vibrant yellowish-brown hues. – generated by AI
