A list of pictures is not enough. You need a comprehensive resource that will also tell you which ones have no inedible lookalikes and how the inedible lookalikes differ if they do exist.
The closest thing to what you are looking for is probably this. And, even then, go out with an experienced mushroom hunter the first few hundred times.
I don't have the answers you're seeking, but I do have the solution: https://jet.com/product/detail/d7b18d41b0004f7db3cb516a8b3fa01f?jcmp=pla:ggl:jd_home_garden_a3:household_supplies_a3_other:na:na:na:na:na:2&code=PLA15&k_clickid=71a20d78-6ba0-427a-8d7c-f35b49a022e3&gclid=CKW40fa3jMkCFYplfgodIYMDsQ
It was on amazon, always in and out of stock so if you see it buy it!
I have discovered multiple books that personify different mushroom species as cute anime girls. Here is the first one, I’ll try to post more.

Personally I recommend an electric grinder, this is what I have
Does the job in a matter of seconds for perfect powder consistency for making chocolates or capsules. I recommend the wood grain look just because it looks nice lol.
Also if you get a normal grinder make sure you never use to grind weed, have separate grinders. You don't want to smoke fungus it's bad for your lungs.
No. They're not. They're Self-adhesive, silicone fake boobs. Like these ones https://www.amazon.com/Vollence-Adhesive-Silicone-Crossdresser-Cosplay/dp/B07HJ1T597
You can see that they're wrinkling in the same way, and even have the same edges at the base.
Dr. Steven H. Pollock referred to the people you have slighted as those in the pursuit of “psychomycological studies.”
You see our passion as myopic and uninformed. That’s just stupid caste bullshit in mycology form.
Hope you don't mind if I also spam here too
Forager's Journal - Android App for keeping all your foraging spots a secret!
Why buy a t-shirt you don't need when you can support an indie developer!
Check out my Android App - Forager's Journal
The sun lol. 🌞 But seriously, ambient room light is enough if you have a window. But if you're in a grow room with no natural light, I've seen this one highly recommended
BLOOM PLUS LED Grow Light BP 1000W 2x2ft Coverage Sunlike Full Spectrum Grow Light for Indoor Plants with 336packs Samsung Diodes(Includes IR) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082Y1PMWF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_6JKNN71QS38JX0DYQKJW?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Cheaper than a novelty t-shirt and you'll be supporting an indie developer.
I use this one, it's not exclusively for edibles though.
Collins Complete British Mushrooms and Toadstools: The essential photograph guide to Britain’s fungi https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0007232241/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apan_glc_fabc_W46VE7FSW67K0ZK261SD
read a book! its a lot less boring than buying a kit and watching it grow but youll be able to build a more sustainable, cheaper in the long run supply.
these kits pictured above are a gimmick. you can buy cheaper mushrooms at a farmers market/ the super market.
i got this book but i supplemented this with a ton of videos on youtube too.
Host Defense - The Mushroom Cultivator: A Practical Guide to Growing Mushrooms at Home, by Paul Stamets and J.S. Chilton https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A2RRSHE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_01312SV20WFVWMZAPD38?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I found the exact one on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/Mushroom-Folding-Camping-Truffles-Hardwood/dp/B074WDVLBK/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=mushroom+knife&qid=1632592265&sr=8-7
Also, you’ll find different ones if you search for “mushroom knife” on Amazon.
I reside in the Czech Republic where they are pretty easy to find in shops.
Hope that helps.
Yes there are lots of books. Not always easy to find one that resonates.
Im located in the North east and i really like this one https://www.amazon.com/Mushrooms-Northeastern-North-America-Bessette/dp/0815603886
Still though even with a decent field guide its pretty daunting to go frolicking through the woods guide in hand trying to ID stuff.
First quick tip, (other than there are lots of tips and many are not true lol) you can handle any mushroom even poisonous ones. So don't be afraid to pick something and check it out. Can only hurt if you eat and swallow.
I recommend stopping and looking at every mushroom you see. Then pay close attention to which trees are growing near by. A mushroom is (basically) either saphorobic meaning it lives by digesting decaying matter or it's mychorizzal meaning it forms symbiotic relationships to sustain. Each species of mushroom has particular trees or plants it will almost always be associated with.
Basically there re only a dozen choice edibles and a handful deadly poisonous. The vast majority are just random but potentially very interesting and beautiful species.
If you are east of rockies now is hen of woods aka grifola frondosa season and chicken of the woods season. Both love oak so there ya go do some research.
Over winter learn about morels which come in spring and their habitats, also look up chanterelles which grow in summer mostly and their habitats That will keep you busy lol
Happy hunting Only consume species you are absolutely 1000% positive of id. Really only the easily identifiable choice edibles are worth it anyways.
Check David Aurora’s field guide book: All That the Rain Promises and More: A Hip Pocket Guide to Western Mushrooms https://www.amazon.com/dp/0898153883/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_939NACD4G67GTSZW1QXH?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
get a propane burner. an electric hotplate likely won't put out enough energy Ina feasible amount of time.
I use an induction burner that I bought off Amazon with my stainless steel PC. Make sure your PC is induction compatible first. A little pricey but it’s done me wonders. Here’s a link to the product: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QD7FZTP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_2G73RV6WDWG5WAQ1N4PY
I have two recommendations:
- Pick up a copy of the Audubon Field Guide
- If you have to ask, don't eat it. Only eat wild mushrooms you can positively identify; you're gambling your internal organs on being right, so, you know, be smart.
These are two Japanese artbooks by Emi Tamaki (玉木 えみ) , where she personifies different species of mushrooms as cute anime girls. I order the books through Japanese Amazon here:
Not enough info. It would be nice to see the whole mushroom. Dig the stem out of the ground that will show the shape and color of the stem and if it has a veil remnant. Gill color and shape are important. Length and width, location, and a spore print are very useful, as well. In other words, this looks like a lot of other mushrooms. Getting a good mushroom field guide will help more than you would know. I recommend All that the rain promises and more This is a very good beginner book and even though it was written about the west coast, I live in the southeast and much of the book pertains to this area, too. Good luck 👍
This is a very good book to start with. there are nice guidebooks on Amazon that have a narrower focus, depending on what you are looking for and where you live. https://www.amazon.com/All-That-Rain-Promises-More/dp/0898153883/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?keywords=mushroom+guide&qid=1582154662&sr=8-9. There is a real good web site that often gets you in the ballpark https://www.fungusid.com/ Happy hunting.

I have the National Audubon Society field guide to mushrooms which I really like for its clear photos and good descriptions.
They have apps that categorize them by shapes and colors and all sorts of things. I'll try and look one up later.
Edit: there are a few, not sure which is the best any more. This one looks nifty with the ability to build the mushroom by what you observe and then it'll give you possible matches.
