Angles captured. One from above, two lower showing the stipe and cap edge.

Morphology

Cap 7–9 cm, white to cream with scattered darker speckles, convex. Stipe long, pale, straight.

Habitat & substrate

Leaf litter, same area again.

Lookalikes & what rules them out

Unresolved, and the white cap means it should be treated with the same caution as the others.

Notes

Third of the three. Kept as separate entries because they are separate fruitbodies, while the note that they form one population is recorded on each.

Found at Massasoit Rd area, Worcester, MA on Wednesday, 12 August 2026 at 18:38. See the full walk for that day's weather and everything else recorded.
