| | | Which Clitocybe?
I have tentatively identified these as Clitocybe (Funnel caps) but I am unable to work out which species. They all have decurrent gills.
Is this one C geotropa?  
Is this also C geotropa? 
Is this C gibba?  
Thanks for your help

What, no takers ?
Maybe because nothing fits !
Shape and cap colour is all wrong for C.geotropa and gill colour is wrong for C.gibba, but that may just be the lighting making it look a different colour.
Your photos just don't capture the right 'jizz'
Sorry,
Neil. |

Probably is Nick, but it growing in grass scared me off.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had the same thought when I saw another thread with the same alternatives after I posted. It looked very distinctive with the dark centre when I saw it and there were lots of them so I thought it might be something obvious that I just didn't recognise. However, it had been very wet when I posted and I think this made them look atypical. I've since dried one cap a little so it is now a more uniform colour. Although I found them in grass they are on mown paths adjacent to hawthorn/blackthorn/gorse/sycamore scrub.
The wet weather may also have made the first two look atypical. I'll try to get more photos of drier examples ingood daylight.
