Hi Pam.

I would say you were spot on with Beech jellydisc, nice find and it can go on the fungi photo challenge.

Not sure about this white rubbery encrusting/bracket type. Possibly Byssomerulius corium ?

And maybe Hyphodontia sambuci for this one ?

These were taken at Shakerley Mere near the end of September.

No. 1- these were very yellow looking when I first saw them through the trees but the camera does not seem to have picked up the colour very well.

Hi Hazel.

1. Collybia type, might be Clustered Toughshank
2. Tricky with it being in stages of decay but likely to be an Armillaria type (Honey Fungus)
3. Lactarius quietus - Oak Milkcap
4. Agree with Blushing Bracket.

OK Dave. If I get chance to visit some suitable sites I will see if I can find some more oddities. I did have another one a couple of days ago but after rethinking that one I'm now sure it was a group of Lycoperdon perlatum at an early stage.

Thanks for those id's Dave.

No. 1 - Is this one white waxcap?

No. 2 - we had a lot of this growing in the mown grass in our garden, is it orange navel cap, the disc is a 5p piece to give the size and it was very orange in colour though the camera has not picked the colour up very well.

No. 3 - is this hoof fungus or just a ganaderma?

Hi Hazel.

1. Agreed, Snowy Waxcap (Hygrocybe virginea)
3. Agreed, Hoof Fungus.

I'll take a closer look at the mycena later on.

I think yours Pam is the early stages of Trametes pubescens.
