deadly galerina (Galerina marginata) at Cardinal Marsh IA 854A0722
Though many mushrooms are excellent eating, there are a few bad fungal actors out there that spoil the fun for potential mushroom foragers. This deadly galerina is one of the most toxic mushrooms known, and there is no magic cure once the mistake has been made to eat them. People don't even know they've been poisoned for about three to four days, when the mushroom's powerful chemical toxins have finally destroyed most of the liver's cells. Beware of all LBMs - little brown mushrooms! Deadly galerina mushrooms have a brown spore print and fruit in clusters from rotting wood.
