This mushroom sparked my curiosity and didnt have my luck with the books so thought I would seek the expertise here on the shroomery.
Here is what I know, pictures to follow:

Habitat - in the long grass of my lawn, lots of sun.

Gills - dull, browny/orangy yellow, attached, fairly wide spaced

Stem - 6cm long give or take 1-2 cm with the others, 5mm, similiar in color to the gills, lighter at the top, darker towards the foot, narrowly hollow with the inner 'hole' with whitish edges near the foot

Cap - lighter in color then the stem/gills, but similar in overall yellow color with slight tints of orange, Convex? (check with picture) and a bit wavy, doesnt appear slippery when wet but grass and such stuck to it.

Bruising - not really much for bruising, gets a bit darker I would guess, except for the foot of the mushroom. After picking the white mycellium turns very orange in color (see picture)

Spore print - brown (see pic)

Scent - nothing unusual

Location - Atlantic Canada

Pictures:











Thanks greatly for having a look!

Yo, what province are you from ?

Sorry I don't have any answers for you about the mushroom, but I'm glad you did a spore print, makes it that much easier to identify.

Looks like a Galerina or something closely related. Probably quite toxic.

There is a great mushroom foray there, it was last weekend I think. Hope to attend next year.

I have to agree with Alan. That looks like a faded Galerina to me, too similar to G. marginata to fool with. You should treat them as if they are deadly poison.

Happy mushrooming!

Thanks! It certainly does look somewhat like the galerina group, close enough. I thought the orange mycellium might be distinct enough to get a closer ID, but such is the way of mushrooms :smile:

There are a few mushrooms with orange mycelium.

Maybe we could get closer with some nice macro shots of pins that have been cut in half with a sharp knife.
