What is it? |
The only place where there's anything of interest is the trees and stumps, and I came across a rather fine fungal specimen today. As you can see from the photograph, it is quite big, the cap about 15cm across, and its thin stem at least as tall, growing from a dead tree stump. It looks a bit like some kind of entoloma, but the stipe is too thin and their caps, as far as I know, are never convex. A mystery! If it's still there this evening I'll take it home to make a spore print, and then perhaps I'll be able to identify at least its genus.
UPD: The spore print turned out to be white, so I have to conclude that it is some kind of toughshank.
