Small caps on woodchip.

[Gerel]

Hi all,

Any thoughts on this little job? Growing on woodchippings from a variety of tree species. I think I can make out the remains of a web/veil so wondered about a Cortinarius but haven't really got a clue.

Cortinarius is ectomycorrhizal and won't be growing on wood chip, so that rules one large section out!

This has the look of a young Hebeloma species to me.

Could be a young Hypholoma? Habitat fits well.

I'd say you are spot on, Nick. (That's probably what John meant as well - just a typo.)

Oops! I was thinking about the remains of a web/veil and what I was having for lunch

based on:



Poor excuse I know

Thanks for suggestions, unfortunately the slugs have destroyed the ones I left so, unless more appear, I won't see how it developed.

Good to see the mind-reading coming on so well Nick
