i think same type of mushroom growing in our office. when i 1st saw it, i thought it was a burnt cable, floor was cover with black powdery substance. 

can anyone help identify what it is?  Am worried if these are harmful or not.  thanks








Looks like Coprinus comatus.





Close, but I'm gonna go with Coprinus sterquilinus. This is awesome:sunny: Might wanna clean up all the spores and wipe down the areas they were growing with alcohol if you are worried (if it's that big of a deal, start taking off trim boards and maybe even drywall)


--------------------
Having lived through an existence close to nature, one accepts the small and simple things as most important in life. Sun, wind, rain and snow. The sounds birds make, smells of fresh wild flowers. Love of all kinds, from friends and family, thy self and our neighbors. Beautiful sunrises to the darkest clouds dancing above in the sky. To forgive, learn, share and express. This is the only thing a man such as myself can ask for. What comes as the result is nothing short of the core of human existence, to truly live free in body and mind.

If that's an office and not a bathroom, then I suggest you do something about that building. The mushroom itself is not dangerous per se, but if there is sufficient moisture for it to thrive, then that means there's probably lots of fungus thriving, and that poses a serious threat to the people working there. In particular, they are at risk of developing respiratory ailments. Personally, I would refuse to work there if the situation persisted and no action would be undertaken by the owner of the real estate.

I agree. You can tell it's disgusting and damp, simply by looking at it. That place ought to be condemned. :frown:
