Internet Fungi ID Test (third try)

[John S. Watson - FSC]

Hello,

I'm very sorry if you've seen this more than once 
(but I'm pretty sure because of a busted news server it
hasn't gotten out yet ...)

Last weekend I found some mushrooms in the Sierra near Yosemite
growing on the ground at about the 7000' level.   

I'm pretty sure I know what they are, at least down to 
the genera, but as a sort of net experiment, 
I've digitize it's image with a video camera, 
to see if anyone in this group provide me with some confirmation.

I've  put the JPEG image file into my WWW homepage directory area,
at:
     http://pioneer.arc.nasa.gov/~watson/mush.jpg

so if you have a chance, could you please take a look
and see what species it is.


Thanks,
John
