This is (a working version of) one possible folk taxonomy of macrofungi in North America.

Just as scientific taxonomy organizes scientific names, a folk taxonomy can organize common names.
The counterpart to this page, with the same names arranged by scientific taxa, is here.

The folk-taxa listed on this page are more-or-less comprehensive.

Naturally, it can also form the basis of a key for identification.
