There are edible and poisonous mushrooms. Along with the most famous edible mushrooms - porcini, boletus, boletus, russula - there are others, which are often called simply “mushrooms”. More often we identify mushrooms by the cap and stem. But it can be difficult to determine whether an unfamiliar mushroom is poisonous or not. If you are picking mushrooms in the forest, follow the rules: do not put an unfamiliar mushroom in the basket, because it may be poisonous.
Here are pictures of some mushrooms considered poisonous.
Among all known mushrooms, toadstool is considered deadly. This is a lamellar mushroom; on its lower side there are radiating porcelain-white plates. The upper part of the cap can be white or greenish-olive, in the center it is dark and silky. The stem of the mushroom is thin with a tuberous thickening at the root, and on top of the stem there is a white ring. The grebe is found in deciduous or mixed forests.
Amanita muscaria ranges in color from orange-yellow to dark red. The young mushroom has a spherical cap, and then opens like an “umbrella”; the plates are white. On the surface of the cap there are spots in the form of white or gray flakes or warts. The leg is white or yellowish with a ring at the top, and a tuber-shaped thickening at the bottom.
The panther fly agaric is found in the same places as the red fly agaric, and is also poisonous. The cap of this mushroom is usually smaller than that of the red one, its color is purple or gray-brown with a violet tint, white spots in the form of disappearing flakes, liquid white plates.
The stinking fly agaric is found in spruce and pine forests. The cap is hemispherical, conical (with a sharp tip), white, sometimes yellowish, the skin is slippery after rain, shiny in dry forests, the plates are white. The leg is white, shaggy with a ring.
Many people use champignons for food, but few people know that among them there are poisonous mushrooms - yellow-skinned champignons. The cap of the mushroom looks like a bell, while the edible one has a sharikasta. The soft mushroom has a brownish-white color, unlike the edible one, and turns yellow when squeezed. The mushroom has a pharmaceutical smell. The leg is white, thick, with a thickening at the bottom. The plates of ripe poisonous mushrooms are red. Remember that the edible champignon is always softer white, the plates of young mushrooms are pale pink, and those of ripe ones range from violet-pink to dark purple.
Fake honey mushrooms are different. The cap of the fake honey mushroom is brick-red in color, at first rounded-convex, later half-spread out, red-brown, brick-red, light red-red. In the center of the cap the shade is darker; there are no scales on the cap. Soft yellowish, with an unpleasant odor. The plates are adherent, yellow-dirty in young mushrooms, brownish-green in adults. The leg is narrowed downwards, hard, yellowish, brownish below. The remains of the brown ring are practically invisible. Similar to the edible one, but smaller. Grows in groups.
