I saw these on a Oak and a Robinia both nearby each other, at first someone told me it was Coprinellus micaceus but I wouldnt mind some confirmation.

A coprinus of some sort

[Fungus]

I saw these on a Oak and a Robinia both nearby each other, at first someone told me it was Coprinellus micaceus but I wouldnt mind some confirmation.

 

That someone was me, and I said it was not an Armillaria species with white spores, but Coprinus micaceus sensu lato, including other Coprinus species such as C. micaceus s.s., C. pallidissimus and C. truncorum, with black spores.

And if you want to be 100 % sure, you'll need a microscope and specialized literature on the genus Coprinus (see Kees Uljé : keys to the subsections of the Coprinus species).

Hey Gerrit no offence meant I just wanted a second opinion, hahah. Thanks a lot you really seem to know your fungi. What do you do? I am a arboriculture student and we have a project on the moment identifying fungi.

Hey Pretzel Boy have a look at this website - it will answer your questions and then maybe understand who this fungi expert is. Enjoy the trip.....

I'm a mycologist and forest ecologist. And have a look at my Dutch website on macrofungi, to see which 1.100 species are on my CD-rom The Interactive Guide to Mushrooms and other Fungi.
