Every time I think I've found an easy-to-identify mushroom, I'm humbled.

Habitat:  Santa Cruz Mnts, CA, Growing in leaf litter under a juvenile live oak.  Base Mycelium infiltrates decaying oak leaves.  No universal veil or volva.

Cap: turning up in age... obvious umbo.

Spore print: too old and dry - I believe - for a print. (I tried)

Stem: has character, as can be seen in all photos.

NOTE: my wife found this one.  If I don't identify it, our marriage is in jeopardy. :grin:

Damn!  I should have trusted my initial spore "print," which I got from running my finger under the gills.  I got a dark, blackish stain, but wasn't sure if this was a stain of deliquescence (?) or spore print.

Thanks, Alan!
