Tis the season to see Fungi, fa la la la la....

[David Humphries]

How about Lactarius decipens for the unknown? Any hornbeam nearby?

 

No Hornbeam Ben, weeping beech and various coniferous.

 

unknown : Camarophyllus niveus ?

 

Looks a good candidate Gerrit, can't find many references to it though.

 

Any experience of it ?

Common as common could be, but thought it was worth putting up. On a larch that we felled last week, video of which has been posted for your perusal.Titled "Really pleased with this one"

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

nice rhizomorph shot that one.

Looked pretty extensive to me?

David,

Especially in the November-December period common in poor or lightly manured grasslands and lawns, grassy spots in sand dunes and on roadsides. If it smells of cedar wood or Russia leather, it's C. russocoriaceus.

IME the Snowy Wax Cap can even be found with fresh snow on its caps and stiff frozen FB's.

Few bits from today, got accosted by an irate landowner for crossing off the public footpath down into an unfenced plantation to get some shots

David,

I assume you know 1/2 is P.o. and 3/4 is C.c.

5/6 : Pholiota (= Kuehneromyces) mutabilis

7/8/9 (+ 10/11 ?) : Xerula species ? If so, X. pudens or X. radicata

12 : the deadly poisonous look-a-like of 5/6 : Galerina marginata (= G. autumnalis) !!!

Now then, now then, now then, 1/2 I'm happy with,

 

3/4 I would be calling C.p

 

5/6 on the Hazel coppice I would see as A.m

 

Had absolutley no idea for the last two, so will happily take your prompts.
