Spike cap mushrooms are widespread across North America. They’re unique, with a wedge-shaped body and bright yellow stem base. They are edible but not super choice. There are approximately 10 spike cap mushroom species (Gomphidius) in North America, but that may change in the near future. All the species are edible but usually aren’t foraged because of their slimy texture and bland flavor.
