| | | Craterellus?
Looks a bit like a Craterellus cornucopiae, but the wrong colour. Growing on a stump, surrounded by honey fungus.

hi
did it have a sweetish aniseedy smell? notched gills?
this looks very like Lentinellus cochleatus . . .
cheers
Chris

Chris | Thanks, yes, that's what it is.
Going in the pot with the roadkill rabbit I picked up not far away...  |

while chomping cast a thought over the fact that this is an interesting fungus from a taxonomic point of view
member of the Russulales! 
member of the family Auriscalpiaceae - and therefore very closely related to: http://www.wildaboutbritain.co.uk/ear-pick-fungus
rather surprising n'est-ce pas?
bon appetite!
Chris

Chris | Yes, very interesting. I initially thought it was a relative of the Oyster Mushroom, then thought it might be related to a Chanterelle...and it is actually more closely related to Russulas? Fungi certainly are strange things. | | |
