1. The start of Ascocoryne sarcoides
2. A Lycoperdon, not a Scleroderma

3. Russula sp
4. Not enough information to suggest a genus.

Is this A.sarcoides then Nick?

Ascocoryne cylichnium?

NickCantle · #6 (**permalink**) 24-10-2008, 03:44 PM

Ah, that's interesting. I haven't seen the info about the two identical species

So it's Ascocoryne sp.
