Hello,

don't think so. I. cookei should have a well developed basal bulb - yours has none. So I would guess it is I. geraniodora, but without the microscopical details (at least the size of the spores), it is far from being sure ....

best regards,
Andreas

Thank's Andreas, i think i may have made a mistake in breaking of the fungi
instead of digging it out!
The image fits nicely with those in mycobel, and the spores seem to fit
description in funga nordica size/shape.

I imaged the spores in clear fluid to get as near true colour as possible, will keep
trying to present better evidence for ID's.
