    Edit: this is most certainly misinformation. Do not eat wild mushrooms

    I read once that any mushroom/fungi growing on a tree is safe to eat, but don’t take my word for it, or the word of whoever wrote what I read.

      Deadly Galerina likes to grow on dead conifers.

      Here it is on a tree

      Death Cap grows on tree roots, not sure if that counts.

      There aren’t a ton of mushrooms that grow on healthy living trees I think, so it’s kinda hard to find a poisonous example but maybe Jack O’ Lanterns count. They can grow at the base of living hardwood trees. They won’t kill you but you will have a very bad time. I think there’s another closely related species that grows on both conifers and hardwoods.
