...to go down to the woods, you bump into three WABers on a fungus tick. Before you know it there's six of us.
More later (my photos aren't going to be good enough).... |

Wabbers meet at Attenborough 
Searching for the Winter Stalk Puffball - Tulostoma brumale 
The result of an 80 mile round trip 
On the way back to the car park, a real agaric, found growing in association with Willow, but what is it?? 
A very interesting day with good friends!

Agaric is reminiscent of a heavily lined (striate) oft times twisted stipe of the Melanoleuca species Still puzzled tho'  Rhodocollybia maculata also has conspicuously striate stipe

Not one I have seen but "stipe base somewhat thickened and rooting, surface longitudinally grooved" it might be Collybia prolixa.

John | It certainly fooled me Like you say I have seen it every time I have been out this year so far and never seen anything like this. I will have to spend a little extra time when I come across it in the future.

Ps having gone through my old photos although none show this depth of grooving some have a distinct ridged stem. | | | |
