Sharp-eyed Elaine Palencia spotted this rather dangerous-looking fellow growing under a hickory tree at Blue Licks Battlefield State Park during the KSPS meeting there last weekend. She suggested it might make a blog-worthy subject and so here it is.

I am not fluent in mushroom. Anybody know who this guy is? (I think the masculine noun is appropriate here.)

Scaly ink cap (Coprinus variegatus)??? The shape and scales are right, but I’ve never seen any that grayish. Dunno.

Maybe it’s an subspecies? Is that what I mean — a sort of scaly ink cap only found on the banks of the Licking River in Nicholas County?
