| | | Re: field fungi for id please #1 Panaeolus papilionaceus - note the dentate veil remnants on the cap edge
#2-4 are Stropharia, I'll let others decide which ...
#5 Bolbitius titubans
#7 another Panaeolus

| | | Re: field fungi for id please Thanks Melanie and treecreeper.I have looked your suggestion up.Number 1 is panaeolus papilionaceus .Number 2 was also growing from dung but was very erect.probably 60mm tall max with 10-15 cap.number 3 was approx 30mm cap with a yellowing yoke coloured centre.Number 4 had a green sheen that does not show so much in the photo,including the stipe.They had caps approx 20mm and the tallest was 70mm .there was a large 40mm cap nearby which may have been the same species gone over.These had a raised centre of cap.5.thanks for the bolbitius id.6.looked like a wax cap ? but was on a limestone meadow had a greenish 60mm stipe and 20mm cap.7.was alone amongst fallen leaves under trees on the field edge. thanks for your help |

Or you can call it the Petticoat Mottlegill
