Edible mushrooms of the Moscow region: photo and description of the gray row
Веслање Греј (трицхолома портентосум) – edible agaric mushroom of the Ryadovkovye family.
The gray row grows in the Moscow region in all mixed and coniferous forests. The mushroom bears fruit from August until the first frost. Often found in friendly families near pine trunks, prefers to settle on moss, as well as on fallen, rotted leaves and needles.
The hat of this species is medium in size – up to 12 cm, round-conical, convex, with a small tubercle in the center, fleshy. With age, this part of the fruiting body becomes flat, and the wrapped edges straighten and crack. The color of the hat corresponds to the name – pale or gray with a darker center, sometimes there is an admixture of purple or olive hues. The surface is smooth, and when wet, it becomes slightly slippery.
The leg is high (up to 10 cm), thick (up to 3 cm), cylindrical, dense, expanded towards the base, often hidden under a layer of moss, leaves and needles. The surface is fibrous, white, gray, sometimes yellowish. The upper part of the leg has a slight powdery coating.
The plates are wide, sparse, sinuous, white, as they grow older they acquire a gray or yellowish tint.
The flesh of the fruiting body is gray or white, sometimes turning yellow when broken. Dense, with a delicate floury smell and pleasant taste.
