Backyard Findings

#5771758 - 06/20/06 08:30 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Never really posted here before so i'll do my best :smirk:

Found these...

In some woodchips in the yard. The woodchips are a wide variety so i'm sure that won't help much. Oak/sweetgum are the main ones that I know of.

The gills are about the same color as the caps, a light brownish color. They don't seem to attach to the stem really. They just connect barely at the center on the mushy.

The stem is really really thin, when you touch it just about breaks. They look solid but when you squeeze barely - You can tell that they're hollow (even though they're so tiny).

The Caps are what caught my eye. They remind me of PESA cubes, lol. They've got nipples :shocked:

....The caps are a milky brown, and where the nipple is, it's a darker brown, like a mountain with a brown peak instead of a white one :smirk:

I know prints are important but I just nabbed 'em...I'll take prints later tonight...But i'm sure by the pics you guys will have a good idea of what they Might be.

Oddly enough, they don't really have a smell =/.

I don't plan on ingesting them or anything, just curious as to what's growing around out there :grin:

Huh... not sure.
The spore colour will help to know, and where are you?
It looks like a Conocybe, but I have not seen Conocybes with the nipple on top before.

I do not think it is of the genus Psathyrella, I considered it in looking at the stem and the colouration of the cap, but the gills in these pics are a light brown colour, and will likely print light brown, maybe white. Psathyrellas have darker grey/brown gills and drop black spores.
