Regarding fungi guides, we do have to consult a number of them to be satisfied of correct ID. But the one that often serves me best is George Barron's "Mushrooms of Northeast North America," a Lone Pine Field Guide. Split Gill is in there, as well as lots of slime molds. I also look at the Audubon guide, mostly to read more information about each species.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-56559869470298511372020-04-02T08:42:14.563-04:002020-04-02T08:42:14.563-04:00Thanks for identifying split gill fungus -- it'...Thanks for identifying split gill fungus -- it's not in any of my field guides on fungi.
