Just for fun - Fung

[David Humphries]

Your friendly neighbood Spidy wasn't about to wait around to see what the Evil Doctor Fung had install for him with his 'of so innocent looking Coprinus disseminatus (fairy ink caps)

 

As he said to him self "just one chance to make this work" he clambered on upward out of the range of the ever so slowly emitting poisonous cloud of evil fung spore

I don't want to spoil the fun, but as my old mycology professor Frans Tjallingii used to say : "Never call all "individuals" of a cluster of small ink caps Coprinus disseminatus, if you have not first checked whether there are no Psathyrella pygmaea among them ."

I don't want to spoil the fun, but as my old mycology professor Frans Tjallingii used to say : "Never call all "individuals" of a cluster of small ink caps Coprinus disseminatus, if you have not first checked whether there are no Psathyrella pygmaea among them."

 

and why is that?

[Fungus]

and why is that?

 

Because P. pygmaea is an often overlooked look-a-like, which sometimes "hides" in clusters of C. disseminatus. Once I started checking for P. pygmaea, I found this (IMO not so) "very rare" species three times.

Frans Tjallingii sounds like a good teacher
