Hi All,

A colleague of mine brought these into work today (he knows I’m a little obsessed with fungus), he found a large quantity growing under a tree in his garden. I’m thinking Clouded Agaric (Clitocybe Nebularis). Hope someone can offer their views.

Cheers

Spot on with Clitocybe nebularis, though the first shot has more colour than I'd expect to see in a typical C. nebularis cap.

Thanks for claryfying that Nick. I know what you mean about the colour, this is the reason I had some doubt regarding my initial thoughts.

Slightly off topic, I followed the link to your website - and I must say youv'e taken some really stunning photos.
