Indigo Milk Cap Mushroom
Lactarius indigo
These otherworldly deep indigo blue milkcaps contain a derivative of azulene. This pigment is also found in some species of soft corals throughout the oceans.
Edible (at your own risk). They have a mild taste to me and I prefer them sauteed.

Russula sp.
There are over 200 known species of russula in the United States. It's one of my favorite genera of fungi.
