| | | Re: Small Fungi under Beech.. Hi Julie,
These are a Pholiota sp. - most likely gummosa but I've never seen these with Beech before.
Was the ground quite damp where these were growing ? (which would tend to confirm it)
Neil.
Extra problem - P. gummosa is supposed to be odourless, so confusion reigns.
