Field notes
Gyromitra esculenta earns its place here purely for the joke buried in its own name: esculenta is Latin for edible, attached to a species mycology treats with real caution. The illustration leans into the mushroom's brain-like folds, a dense, convoluted cap rendered with the same fine detail naturalist plates give to their stranger subjects.
No claim about eating it appears anywhere in this listing, the name is the whole point. Printed small and centered on a soft charcoal beanie, dark enough to let the reddish-brown cap read clearly. Part of the WildLifeThings mushroom collection.
