Re: Help with ID for funnel type fungi found under oak trees
This is even more difficult and really needs to be done with a microscope.
But in the absence of such an instrument, I shall have to guess at Clitocybesubspadicea (and only 42 records on the BMS database)
But as that seems to be rather scarce, it's probably better to opt for C.metachroa.
Re: Help with ID for funnel type fungi found under oak trees
these late autumn/winter Clitocybe species are one of the best arguments for concentrating on the study of micro-fungi I know - extremely common, but so tricky to name with any confidence . . . .
