I'm posting a 🤙5000🤙 sat bounty to anybody who can identify these mushrooms to the satisfaction of nostr:nprofile1qqspn7d0hru9ta0gddd759sw0rk9suty3vgdakcy8ayqdl9geegwf5cpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hszynhwden5te0dehhxarjw4jjucm0d5hsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyee03zm6vx.

Couldn’t see a spore print in the thread. Also no info on habitat/substrate/smell/location. Desarmillaria tabescens a strong contender.
I tagged you on the spore print. The location is southern us (louisiana), habitat/substrate is my backyard where rotting wood has been previously and on some roots, idk about smell as i haven't tried that.
Thanks. I’m in Europe so a pinch of salt is required. There’s a lot of overlap in species, but still. By substrate I mean what’s it growing on or what are the nearby trees? Is it near an oak or a pine or a beech for example? If you were in europe I’d stick with my id (spore print was important) but even so I am 85-90% sure it’s in the armillaria genus (honey fungus) though. If the ask is practical rather than mycological, you only need to get down to genus level to take measures. Hope that’s slightly helpful!?
Based on the image, the mushroom appears to be a type of honey mushroom, likely the ringless honey mushroom (Desarmillaria tabescens).
These mushrooms are parasitic and/or saprobic, growing on the roots of hardwood trees, particularly oaks.
They are called "ringless" because they lack the annulus (ring) on their stem that is characteristic of other honey mushroom species.
Ringless honey mushrooms typically grow in large clusters from a central mass of mycelium just below the ground.
