Ide have t disagree in that false chanterelles do smell very nicely of apricots... I have found them alot and 3 or four of us remarked on how amazing they smell. However, none of the real chanterelles I have found ( cibarus) haven't smelt of apricots.....

nope , you get dark grey black winter chanterelles (Craterellus cornucopiodies) and brown and yellow cantherellus Infundibuliformis.... found some Infundibuliformis the other day.....

Ello I would advise when wanting to id mushrooms from photograph to take a few angles. Important things are : does the mushroom have gills or pores . So a picture of the underside of the cap. Does the stem have a ring or traces of a ring as they can wear away. Does the mushroom have a volval bag at ...

I would say the last mushroom is NOT a Boletus Edulus . I have picked alot and the mushroom picured dosent look alike. The first does look to be a puffball of some sort.
