Finding and identifying various species of mushrooms is a great facet of this hobby. It takes plenty of time and effort to do correctly.
I have some book titles that I can post/recommend for anyone interested in going that route.
I definitely suggest a read through of the threads (short and sweet but dense in information) above and expand from there......
An identification should be made with no less than
size, color, gill connectivity, environment, a cross section, bruising color, odour, and a spore print.
