| | | Re: Help needed identifying Hello Fiona and a big welcome to the WAB fungi forum.
First, for necessary reasons, can I draw your attention to the third sticky down on the main fungi page under the heading 'Help us to help you'
As your photos are not in a nice neat order all I can say is that you have 3 species of Armillaria shown, A.gallica (Bulbous Honey Fungus) A.tabescens (ringless HF) and probably A.mellea.
Also shown are possibly Trametes gibossa (top left), a Mycena sp. (not Coprinus), possibly Hypholoma fasciculare, the Lactarius could be quietus, but to me looks more like L.vietus, and last, as you say, Pleurotus sp.
Trying to ID from photos is usually very difficult, even more so when no information is provided.

| | | Re: Help needed identifying agreed, could definately do with some info (or even a hello!  ), but from a purely aesthetic point of view, i love the photos, nice lighting and composition. but yeh, they could show better features if they were to be used for ID, though i think Neil has pretty much nailed it, at least to genus level.

| | | Re: Help needed identifying I completely understand Fiona, this is the reason I also am reluctant to post photos, coz I'm afraid of messing things up and embarrassing myself.
At least yours came through in the end.

can you tell which of the fotos is A. tabescens? I have never seen that species, but have the feeling that I might have overlooked it probably.

best regards,
Andreas | You have me worried now Andreas, so I am writing this from my hole in the ground.
Since I made my first reply, the photos have been rearranged into a better order (1 - 10) so the photo which I believe shows A.tabescens is now No 9.
It seems to show typical honey colours on the stem, but there are no signs of a ring which quickly led to my belief these are the ringless Honey Fungus A.tabescens.
I did consider Kueneromyces mutabilis but ruled this out as I could see no sign of even a faint ring.
I also ruled out Galerina marginata for the same reason, but I must admit the caps look right for K.mutabilis or G.marginata.

Neil. | thank you. Hmm, this no. 9 is a strange one. It doesn't look like my imagination of A. tabescens, because the fruitbodies look so slender and the caps so thin fleshed. The stipe seems to have small brown squamules, so Kuehneromyces mutabilis seems the nearest. But, as you already said, there is no trace of a ring to be seen. So may be it is not K. mutabilis, but I have no other idea. Kuehneromyces vernalis looks different.
best regards,
Andreas
