i dont consum alcohol, very veeery rarely on a party or so. but i know , the most coprinellus are poisones with alkohol and many more. !!! everything is prepared and already cooking. had you heard of this 19 PEOPLE DIED HUNTING MUSHROOMS -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RlUWNEmWU8 --

The parasol is nice(coprinellus) comatus) but macrolepiota procera or the common version is poisonous if consumed with alcohol.
Gina9210
lol.... hope not. I want to rectify my mistake its the smell not small sorry. :-)
AlexKonig
i'm pretty sure. not the first wild mushroom i eat. i have still enough other at the freezer. but for you i will check again!! when i dont come back in an hour, it's the wrong one (joke) lol
Gina9210
there is no harm on the stem.
AlexKonig
my fav is : coprinus (coprinellus) comatus and macrolepiota procera

But Alex be careful we always mistaken freckled dapperling (lepiota aspero)as the prince( agaricus augustus) they are faintly similar. the small is very important to identify the difference between the two.
Gina9210
agaricus augustus is edible you can eat it it is actually identify as a good tasting mushroom.
AlexKonig
thanks again, will check the moskito after dinner. 1 question: by agaricus (augustus) you can eat the stem too (i thought : yes). or not??? the pain comes today, i had not so much irritation yesterday. today every bite get big.!!! little suckers - bähh.
Gina9210
They have the same mosquito in Finland very invasive there is no where to run. they were slightly bigger than normal tropical mosquito and they bite at day time. It was a painful bite I must say!

This looks like Aedes japonicus.
