Fungi and Slime molds (26 galleries)

Mushrooms, slime moulds, polypores....

I am by no means a mushroom expert, and many of the photos here are left without names because I haven't yet identified them. If anyone can put a name to them I would be grateful!

With many thanks to Otto Loesel, Dr. Yolande Dalpe, and Michele and Christiane Corbeil for help with identification.

New photos at the beginning. Please click on thumbnails to enlarge.
