Top 2 Most Common Mushrooms in Onga
Most Common Mushrooms
1. Artist's conk
This shelf fungus can live for several consecutive years and can be dated by the growth ridges seen on its dark surface. Artist's conk grows in tiered groups at the bases of oak, beech, and conifers, as well as deadwood. When its spores release, they cover the area with visible brown dust. Scratches in the white undersurface create dark lines.
2. False parasol
Though the false parasol appears unassuming, the species is famous—or, infamous—for its toxicity. It looks unfortunately similar to Agericus campestrus, a commonly eaten mushroom, but the false parasol can be distinguished by its highly unusual green spore print. Although they are no good to eat, they can be pretty to look at. The species may grow in ring-shaped groups in meadows and on forest floors in what are sometimes called "fairy circles."
