Melbourne/Vic Inactives and Edibles 2011

This thread seemed to boogie along rather well last season so I thought I would kick it off again with todays finds.
Little lanky dudes really slimy:

Neat little black mushroom:

Really fragile specimen growing out of (unkown) poop.

Some slime mold/Jelly fungus:

Feel free to join in with any cool finds you have, not just from Vic either.
Happy hunting all.

Really nice shots!
Not sure what Galerina or what the first is.
The second is an Entoloma and I hope Entoloma moongum because what a cool name. The third is a Copinopsis sp. and a very fine specimen. The fourth is Tremella mesenterica.

Thanks Joie!
I can't offer much more about the first one other than the amount of slimy goo on it if you look in the second shot, you can see how thick it is. It was like an army of snails had a party on it. 
Entoloma is what I guessed for the second so I must be improving a little bit hehe.
The Coprinopsis sp was really delicate and awesome looking, I never seem to be able to ID these smaller species, I think I need to do some more research on them.
I seem to have good luck with different Tremella sp. found a few different ones, and they always make my day. 
Edit: Spelling....I blame Joie.

Limacella would have white spores. These look like they would have rusty brown spores (or at least some shade of brown). There would be lots of possibilities if they were white spored. It seems that no-one on MO has any idea what they are either, but hopefully someone will come along with some insight. They really have me intrigued.

I'll be heading to the same spot this weekend coming so I'll keep my eyes peeled and hopefully bring home a sample to print.

After going over the pics again it looks like they are growing from dung. It also looks like they are purple spored. Those features coupled with the glutinous stipe would suggest that this belongs in Stropharia subgenus Stercophila. That's the group the includes S. semiglobata and doesn't really belong in the genus Stropharia.
I was thrown by the orange looking ring (assuming that it was due to spore drop), but considering that the base shows a similar discolouration I think it is a bruising reaction.

I think you could be onto something there tbh, I had assumed it was dirt/decayed wood matter but it definately could have been dung.
I had initially thought the spore print would be purple due to the way the gill shots came out, but then I think I confused myself a bit and started looking for anything that looked close without paying attention to the details.
I should have no problems finding them again, they are in some pretty dense bushland but it's an area I hike through often.
Thanks for all the help with this.

Yeah it's painful tbh. I went out today and found another sample and he was right about it growing on dung too. It's almost uncanny.

I'm flattered... but I don't think it's true. I'm just a novice. There is such a vast amount I still have to learn.

Hey guys. I've really taken a passion to photographing mushrooms this year, there's so much mystery and diversity to every bit of fungus and I can see myself taking this up as a hobby. Although I need to acquire a decent camera first as most low light macro shots don't go down too well on my little canon 
Anyway here are some of the shots I've taken so far this year, not too bad for my circumstances imo

A different dung loving Stropharia or perhaps something like Deconica coprophila?
This one was no where near as tall as the other, and lacked the glutinous stipe, it was in what appeared to be horse dung. It was also kind enough to print itself for me.

They're a Deconica but I don't think they're P. coprophila. Maybe something along the lines of D. merdaria

Pretty awesome hunt today. Spent about 2 hours out with lots of encounters.
Not bad pics for my 3 year old point & click whose lens cap won't close.


These guys were as I was walking to the park. I had a good feeling after seeing them.

Locky, they're actually a star shape when they first come out. The tips of the stars have rotted away. I don't know their real names I just call them star-dudes ALSO they're cool!

Yeah there every where here, They eventually blow out powder spores i think 
And do you know what the fragile one above it is?

It was fruitful day at my local reserve.  Volvariella speciosa

Hebeloma sp.

Fungi 1. Not sure.


These Mycena were found a few weeks back. Some caps were huge, about 25mm across.



Bolbitius titubans



Fungi 2. Has orangish spore print. Maybe a Galerina sp.?


Gymnopilus austrosapineus

Fungi 3. It has a light vanilla-tan spore print.

Gymnopus sp.

Marasmius sp. 1. Colours of the caps were biscuit.

Marasmius sp. 2. Colours of the caps were peachy-orange.


Marasmius sp. 3. Sorry, no photo of the cap. Hopefully I will get more photos of these in the coming weeks.

Hymenopellis sp.


Clitocybe sp. I think.

Ramaria sp.


Laccaria sp.


P. sub.

Scleroderma cepa.

Great finds everyone 
Dr. Zoidberg: I also have an el cheapo P&S. They can take some decent shots when they want to. Although I'm considering buying a new camera soon.
Lord Mayo: Stunning photos as usual. Those Bolbitius pics are amazing! I'm probably not much help with the unknowns but 1 could be a Leucopaxillus or similar, 2 I don't know but it's really interesting, 3 was the pileus hairy? It looks like a Crinipellis. Aus apparently has two species C. stipitaria and C. australis the latter usually grows on Themeda grass.
Things still haven't really kicked off up here yet, but i'll add a few recent finds. I decided to hunt in the moss under dense thickets of chinese scrub because it's still fairly dry.
Galerina marginata

Tubaria sp. (something along the lines of T. conspersa)

Pycnoporus coccineus

Mycena austrofilopes

and a Lepiota sp. that was growing in my garden

Yep, pileus was hairy. Crinipellis australis is quite fitting - growing from dead grass (posibbly Themeda) and hard to photograph for that reason.
Those Lepiotas seem quite common, surely it would be described somewhere...

Looks like I mixed up the numbering a bit but you still knew what I was talking about... 3 = Tubaria sp. and marasmius 3 = Crinipellis
I think you're right about the Lepiota. I've seen quite a few finds of this species (or at least very similar). I might try to ID it properly next time I see it.

Great stuff Mayo and TimmiT. 
Something makes me want to say an Inocybe of some sort for your unkown sp. 2 LM. It's really cool whatever it is.

Awesome little Mycena It could be Mycena fumosa
I'm calling the Lepiota from my garden Lepiota subincarnata. It's common name is the "Fatal Dapperling", apparently a very toxic little mushroom.

Yup I reckon that might just be the one TimmiT. 
I found another log with heaps of them but the hole was too small and they were too far down to get a photo. Totally awesome to see though. 
I was supposed to go hunting yesterday, I spent the day recovering from what turned into a 16 hour pub crawl though.

Some kind of stalked polypore but not Amauroderma rude as it has white pores that turn red upon touch. Cool find though.

Hmm, I might have to keep looking for what it might be then. It was pretty rad, it had snapped under it's own weight. It was around 20cm or so across the widest point, and quite deep too.

More from a couple of days ago...
Inocybe australiensis I think.





Small Clitocybe sp.

These again.

Crinipellis sp. Went back to photograph the caps and found a small patch growing from grass. Originally when I found them they were growing from the base of a dead plant rather than grass as I so thought.



Lepiota sp.

Laccaria sp.

Thanks Lord Mayo! I really have to get myself one of those small Gorilla tripods. I've started playing around with photo stacking however it doesn't work so well when the camera I'm using only has auto focus. It's really strange to think that puffball is a fungus, awesome clear shots.

That thing is amazing, I don't believe how well you've captured it. I think I need to enroll in the Mayonnaise school of photography.
