[Sca-cooks] Mushrooms-Rumpolt Sca-cooks Digest, Vol 17, Issue 18

[M C Grasse]

I checked with Thomas, who is swamped at the moment and sent a couple 
of links that did not help in this case but may be VERY nice in the 
future.  I found a couple of things on further digging, but not sure 
any of it is useful, though there are a few latin names to play with. 

164. Nim{b} du:erre Peltzschwammen/ (dried ____)  not finding much 
here, but there is 
SCHWAMMPILZ, m. name des feuerschwammes (boletus igniarius) und anderer 
arten des löcherschwamms. CAMPE.

188. Nim{b} Redling Schwammen/  I would concurr, perhaps some kind of 
red-ish colored shroom but nothing in any of the obscure dictionaries I 
have access to.

198. Nim{b} Stockschwammen/  I come up with this… but the two seem very 
different…
stockschwamm, m., agaricus mutabilis Schaeffer PRITZEL-JESSEN 456a; 
bairisch auch bezeichnung des ziegenbartschwammes, (*in bavarian also 
called the goats beard mushroom) polyporus umbellatus Fries. 464b; vgl. 
auch AMARANTHES 1906 --

119. Nim{b} Keiserling/   we solved that one, and
  also Mauerachen as Morchel


Best of luck
