Extract from Wikipedia article: Gymnopilus sapineus, commonly known as scaly rustgill, is a small and widely distributed mushroom which grows in dense clusters on dead conifer wood. It has a rusty orange spore print and a bitter taste. It is unclear at this time whether this species or its relatives contain the hallucinogen psilocybin.
Gymnopilus penetrans is a species of mushroom-forming fungus that grows on coniferous trees, particularly spruce and pine. In St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, it has been found in forests and parks, often fruiting from July to November. In north-western Russia, it is widely distributed and can be found in various habitats, including boreal forests and wooded areas. The fungus produces yellowish-brown to reddish-brown caps with a velvety texture and white to yellowish gills. It is considered an ectomycorrhizal fungus, forming symbiotic relationships with tree roots.
