Where to look: parasol
A field over the measurement network. The colour here is for the leading species at each point, not for this one; a per-species layer is computed for one region so far.
Parasol in Tyumen Oblast: where to look
Parasol: the species in brief
How to tell it
A tall mushroom with a broad cap covered in brown scales on a pale background. The stem has a snakeskin-like pattern and a thick ring that is often movable. Mature specimens are large and distinctive, but no single feature should be used on its own.
Where it grows
On woodland edges, in clearings, parks, pasture and grassy commons.
In the kitchen
The cap is the part usually eaten; the stem is fibrous. Large caps are often breaded and fried or cooked whole.
Nutrition
Low in calories with a modest protein content.
