Hi Madhuri ji.

This is not a flower shaped mushroom rather an old mushroom.

In many mushroom species the cap splits longitudinally on 

maturity.

They are all mature one .... all mushrooms can never be of

same size in wild

Can it be Agaricus?

Agaricus is a good choice but I am wondering about that 

split cap.
