Please don't be discouraged. Fungi are some of the hardest to identify. It's best to not identify them until at least the following is clear:
- visual match (not just superficially similar, has to be very close)
- has to occur in the region
- same substrate (what it grows on)
- need photos of key angles, such as gills
Without these 4 things, you cannot reliably identify a fungus. Even with those 4 things it's sometimes difficult or impossible. My recommendation is to not identify them here unless you have the above 4 things. Then the community may be able to help bring it closer to species level. It's also good to explore local experts, for example Facebook groups for fungi in Asia. Posted 3 years ago
