Today's Collection ... needing ID please

[82t]

Hi

Three different pickings today.

In the middle of open parkland, these fresh little ones, wet and waxy to the touch. Kind of sulphurous smell when fresh, but not unpleasant.



Not much change five hours later


Then this bracket on a tree stump in the middle of the park.



Then some smaller mushrooms in clusters beneath some holly trees.

Hi

It is difficult to ID fungi from photographs,

I think the first one is Marasmius oreades (the clay coloured well spaced gills pale buff cap and tough stem are the characters I am using)

Middle one - not sure

The last on is a species of what used to be called Collybia. These have tough often flattened stems, perhaps someone else will be able to confirm the species. and perhaps the current Genus.

The bracket is a Ganoderma and cutting it in half normally shows enough information to split G applanatum and G australe unfortunately in its first year this characteristic is not yet available. The only other way is to measure the spores.
