| | | need help to id this fungi hi there,in my stupid rush to identify a fungi growing in my garden and thus possibly prevent my children getting really sick i didnt read the rules correctly and used an image hosting site rather than resize them
anyways ive now resized them so i will try again.
i found these in my garden earlier today,they are small and quite delicate no odour i can smell,they were much lighter than the photos when i took the pics,and have a band around the bottom of the cap with thin stalks
i appologise for the new image quality but i guess thats the price of resizing  
i would really appreciate any help you could offer me thank you |

| | | Re: need help to id this fungi these look rather like a species of Conocybe - it's a microscope job to name to species level
whatever - you've no need to worry about toxicity in this instance; indeed the chances of something deadly appearing in your garden and children eating it are extremely remote (fungal, that is)
traffic is far more of a risk to health - as would be dog faeces in a park
best wishes
Chris

Chris | Except for Pholiotina filaris/ Pholiotina rugosa which is/are poisonous. These don't appear to have a ring on the stem though.
