Dinosaur hunters get excited when they find bones. That is to be expected. They get really excited when they find one to a species that they believe to be one that had not been discovered before. I can appreciate that. Because of this, the number of dinosaur species exploded. Three-horned little dinosaur – Triceratops. Really big three-horned dinosaur – Torosaurus. Some, though, believe they are really the same species. One is just the adult version of the other. Read more about this issue here.
I think mushrooms suffer the same fate. In a previous post I explore how the exact same mushroom is called different things depending on its age and size. Button mushrooms is one of those.
