Orange Mock Oyster, Phyllotopsis nidulans, is pretty to look at, but that's about all it has going for it. Field guidebooks describe it as having a disagreeable odor and taste, but I couldn't distinguish any bad smell or taste. Nevertheless, it is considered to have no culinary value. The top is noticeably fuzzy. After drying the gills are a vivid orange.
