Really hard to tell but would think that Coprinus would be a good shout.

Found this funky number growing on a Cedar of Lebanon log used as a "youth bench". Cant find anything on Rogers Mushrooms which comes close. It looks similar to Schizopora paradoxa in the top picture but the bottom two don't match up.

 

 

your first resipinate fungi is very common this year in the current damp conditions in which it thrives coniophora puteana lots about this year, if your lucky youll also see a more olive green version, and the bright yellow fan resupinate coniophora arida and Schisopora paridoxa is a much more toothy crustose fungi, very common on cherry (p Avium and also on birch burrs)

 

the second is a postia sp or tyromyces

Found these on Bushy park near Hampton court palace...a deer had knocked the top one over a bit which i tried to rescue but it was kinked on it,s stem:blushing:...do you think it would have survived Tony?

these are the field parasol and another lepiota, though difficult to pin down, nice find

 

yes the field parasol would have sporolated just fine in that state:thumbup1:

Oh good...the field parasol was the size of a large dinner plate! and quite beautiful...as was the culprit:sneaky2:

I have been known to put a splint on the odd broken fungi so the spores can fallout normaly!
