A few from Warnham yesterday - deciduous woodland (Sycamore, Oak, Beech, Hazel)

Are these Stump Puffballs? - on a decaying stump.

Posted Image

Are these two just different versions of Turkey Tail?

Posted Image

Posted Image

There were 3 or 4 of these on a rotting branch - I wondered whether they are Yellow Shield but they were only about 1cm across.

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

Dead Man's Fingers?

Posted Image

and I wondered whether this is Dead Moll's Fingers - the rotting wood may well be Sycamore as there were a number of Sycamore trees in the area.

Posted Image

and I wondered whether this is Small Stagshorn - again on rotting wood.

Hi Grayling.

Yes to Stump Puffball and Turkey-tail (although i'll just check the second photo for a similar type of bracket)

Also correct with Yellow-shield, Dead Man's Fingers, Dead Molls Fingers and Small Stags horn.

I have a few more from a different habitat - bog/mire, heather, pine, birch, acid heathland, sandy soil

Fungi 1

Posted Image

Posted Image

Fungi 2

Posted Image

Posted Image

Fungi 3

Posted Image

Posted Image


I think this might be Amethyst Deceiver based on one I asked about previously but not sure about the habitat.

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

I think these might be Sickener?

Posted Image

Posted Image

I've got a few more but not sure how many photos can be attached to a post so will post the others tomorrow :hi:

I'd agree with that one Pam.

It is Clitocybe gibbosa on the previous page Jen and i'll take a look at your latest one.

Fungi 2, Grayling is one of those tricky Russula types, would possibly need more info. The gills don't look forked so it's probably not Russula cyanoxantha.

Fungi 1 and 3 i'll check over.

Fungi 4 I'd agree with Amethyst deceiver

Fungi 5 is likely to be The Sickener or Beechwood Sickener. One way to tell them apart is to peel the skin back on the cap towards the centre, Beechwood Sickener peels back only one third of the way to the centre whilst The Sickener peels back to two thirds.

Hi Dave, many thanks for your help. What extra info would you need for Fungi 2? There was quite a lot of it so I should be able to get other photos if that would help

I did think Fungi 5 was Sickener as it was the wrong habitat for Beechwood Sickener.

Thankyou for confirming the Amethyst Deceiver :Cool:

:thankyou2:

Hoof fungus - on birch

Is this Mycena rosea?

Posted Image

Another one

Posted Image

I think these are False Chanterelles?

Posted Image

Posted Image

Posted Image

And I wondered whether this might be Velvet Bolete? Right habitat but my book says more common in the north :hmm:

Hi Grayling.

I might be able to get enough from the gills on that Russula.

Yes to Hoof Fungus, Mycena rosea, False Chanterelle and Velvet Bolete. I'll check the others for you.

The fungi list has been updated today so a few of yours Grayling will be eligible to add.
