* Tasmania Season 2014 *

I was in Flinders Island for work and came across some interesting fungi: Ergot (Claviceps purpurea) on cocksfoot grass (Dactylis glomerata). Seems like a good chance to start off the 2014 season, or am I stretching it too far?
Enjoy!

I'm from Deep South Victoria and I fucking love the Tassie thread. It looks more like where I live than the Victorian photos. Good work starting it and good luck! Find some subs!

Nice one Tas75, you said youd beat me too it.
I had a nice hike planned to my regular liberty cap spot on saturday, as its definitely cooled down enough for them to fruit for the season i reckon.
Not sure about the subs though, i wonder if its still too dry in my part of the world, esp given the rain they keep forcasting hasnt happened.
Anyway, awesome pics, and i reckon they count.
cheers, must be time to catch up for coffee again.

Hi Obtuse, no I haven't seen a sub yet.
I looked out for them in Flinders Is., where it had rained plenty, but not cool wnough yet. I'm off to Blue Tier next week and the forecast rain over the weekend might bring them out.

Hello All
It was good to see that this thread has been started. Hello Obtuse and Tas75  I've had a look, but as yet no subs, but I did find some mushrooms worth taking photo's of.
I hope no one minds me sharing them in this thread.

You're doing better than me... I haven't even found any inactives in my usual spots... Still very dry around here, but the last two nights have been an improvement. Hopefully next week I can at least find some inactives growing.

Amanita muscaria and Suillus species are popping up already. I got a few Suillus to put in the gravy last night. Yummy.
And yep, same ergot. It's not uncommon, I keep seeing them around, mostly on ryegrass (Lolium)

Hi guys,
Just wanted to say gday and thanks to all you guys that provided some great insights in last years thread, was having a dig through it the other day 
This is my first season down in tas, im up in north east in the forest, from what i understand its a little more challenging up here but im walking in the forests near pine plantations most days as they are all around my house so well see what pops up!
Peace.

Hello Obtuse, Thanks, Hope things are good for you too 
Hello Nevermind, it's good to see you back this season. I've gone out again since my last post but still no subs. I think they won't be to far away. btw, I've already seen an imposter (Galerina maginata)!!!!! The pictures I've taken so far are taken mainly in dense habitat.
hope it a good season for you Nevermind 
Some more pictures for you all (sorry only in-actives, but I did get active finding them )

Excellent pics Blessed.
im very impressed.
A bit of a wierd year for me so far and i may not be contributing many pics this year (as was the case last year) due to stuff happening in my life.
still around to do plenty of ID's but.
I guess as they say, shit happens. so make sure you get lots of pics to make up for my loss.

Hey gang. Nice start with the ergot!
Has anyone got the new Tasmanian field guide which has come out quite recently? Is it good? Is it pretty? Layout pleasing? I must know, because field guides are as satisfying to me as awesome finds, and I must catch them all.
