That said, your fungi looks like a Coprinus to me. They are usually not very palatable, but a few sp. are eaten. I do not know enough to say that none are poisonous, but they are not among the often-discussed poisonous mushrooms.
Thank you for your time:) and hopefully ill be a member soon, there is so much in this blog i want to read and learn about...but sadly money doesnt grow on trees... Lol..
Hi Perly. There are sites you may enjoy even while not a subscriber. If you click on COMMUNITIES at the top of the page, it will take you to a list of forums. Any without an asterisk * beside them are open to all DG users. Welcome to DG...
As your links show, Coprinus has been split up recently - your fungus looks more like one of the Coprinopsis species, which are toxic for people (particularly so if consumed together with alcohol: the drug 'antabuse' is derived from Coprinopsis). Note though that toxicity for people does not necessarily also mean toxic for pets, or vice-versa; each species has its own separate toxicity list.
