Hello Aubrey and cheers from Italy. I always have a lot of fun reading MM, not only it gives me lots of infos on mushrooms, it also makes me travel to outdoors I haven’t been! Thank you 😊
Regarding the S. sanguinolentum, I felt compelled to add a note on the suffix meaning since the Latin word passed almost unchanged through the centuries, we use the same in Italian.
Here you go: The suffix *-lento* in the Italian word *sanguinolento* originates from the Latin *-lentus*, which is used to indicate a characteristic or quality. In this context, it conveys the idea of being "full of" or "characterized by." Thus, *sanguinolento* means "bloody" or "blood-stained," describing something that is mixed with, covered in, or reminiscent of blood.
Grazie Michele :). Thank you for adding that context and contributing to our learning.
I'm glad you are able to enjoy MM from Italy, a lot of mushrooms we look at also show up in Europe. I'd love to get over there and find the mushrooms you have that we don't. Until then, take care and thank you for reading.

Hey Aubrey!
Thanks for the shout-out! It was fun wandering around in the woods with you.
What no link to your MO observation???? :-D
So you don’t have to look it’s here: https://mushroomobserver.org/572696 (and mine is here: https://mushroomobserver.org/572657).
I also note that your iNat (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/267915292) and MO observations aren’t linked.
If you use the new MO iNat importer (see https://mushroomobserver.org/articles/39) you can upload to iNat and then create a connected MO observation.
Enjoy!
