Endoptychum depressum

Foraging: Never eat a wild mushroom on a photo or an app’s word. Many deadly species look like edible ones.

Endoptychum depressum

About

Agaricus inapertus is a species of secotioid fungus in the genus Agaricus. It was first described by American mycologists Rolf Singer and Alexander H. Smith in 1958 as Endoptychum depressum. Molecular analysis later proved it to be aligned with Agaricus, and it was formally transferred in a 2003 publication.

In the kitchen

This fungus is not eaten by humans, so it's best to admire it in nature rather than in your kitchen. While some mushrooms are delicious, this one isn't on the menu!
