- The morel: generally brown in colour, they have a characteristic conical, slender shape with alveoli covering them. The flesh is beige and fairly thick.
- The slipppery jack: similar to the porcini, but with a different appearance. The slippery jack is often larger, with a flatter cap and a less round shape than the porcini.
- The fairy ring mushroom: its cap is 2 to 5 cm in diameter, cream, pale ochre or russet-orange cream in colour. The stalk is very thin, hard and rather fibrous, and should be reserved for other culinary preparations. The fairy ring mushroom is well rounded and made up of numerous strips.
- The black trumpet: its flesh is black, thin and membranous. The black trumpet has a flared cap in the shape of a hollow funnel down to the base of the foot. The tube thus formed holds the foot. It can grow to between 10 and 15 cm in height.
