Take TroveRadar Into the Field

Pin mushroom species to your field journal to your field journal. Get offline maps, real-time species ID, and community find reports.

How many mushroom species does TroveRadar cover?
TroveRadar currently catalogs 1,618 mushroom species found across North America, including edibility ratings, habitat descriptions, seasonal windows, and regional look-alike warnings for each entry.
Can I use TroveRadar to identify mushrooms in the field?
TroveRadar provides detailed identification information, but should be used as a supplementary reference alongside expert guidance. Never eat a wild mushroom based solely on any app or website. When in doubt, consult a local mycological society.
What do the edibility ratings mean?
Our edibility ratings range from 'choice' (excellent eating) and 'edible' (safe when properly prepared) through 'medicinal' (used for health benefits), 'inedible' (not palatable), 'toxic' (causes illness), and 'deadly' (potentially fatal). Always verify identification with multiple sources before consuming any wild mushroom.
