Three rare Red Book mushrooms found in central Minsk

In an industrial zone, a well-known Belarusian mushroom forager discovered three fruiting bodies of Volvariella speciosa, an unusual mushroom with a velvety cap. The mushroom is edible, but collecting it is prohibited: the species is listed in the Red Book of Belarus. Illegal harvesting can result in a fine of up to 1,260 rubles. Video: ip.chaser.
