| | | Mycena? I'm just getting my records filed onto my database, so this is the start of all the unknowns ...
In an upland unimproved short-cropped hygrocybe meadow in September. I never got round to looking at it properly. It looks like a mycena to me ... any ideas? The previous year there were thousands or probably more accurately millions of Mycena flavo-alba on this particular field and several others, it was white with them, but if my memory serves me correctly they were somewhat smaller than this one, and much more delicate, and rapidly becoming flat/upturned. And this was solitary or perhaps with just one other ....

| | | Re: Mycena? Hi Melanie,
without being sure, but couldn't be a young Bolbitius vitelinus?
best regards,
Andreas

| | | Re: Mycena? Bolbitius vitelinus has a better feel than mycena, now you mention it ... I guess it is one that should best be put aside as not likely to get a definite ID though ...
Thanks

| | | Re: Mycena? hi Melanie
just to offer an alternative . . . if it's in that amenity grassland/clover mix, then Mycena flavoalba is perhaps a possibility . . .
common in this bit of Yorkshire in said habitat . . .

| | | Re: Mycena? Try again  Flavoabla usually has a white to ivory stem and white to cream lamellae. This one seems to have yellow stem and gills
