Hi Andy,

it's a type of Parasol , Macrolepiota sp.
If it was in the meadows at Bempton then possibly M. procera

Paula, your first tiny one... if it was bright orange one is probably Mycena acicula.
The second one is a very old decayed bracket fungus.

The third, "wierd", ones are a very young, just emerging, Birch Polypore - Piptoporus betulinus and an old slug eaten one from last year.

Is this first one Yellow Stagshorn by some chance or is it more likely to be one of the Corals?

I'm guessing this second one is a Parasol of some kind?

Possibly with it being on wood substrate i would be inclined to say Stagshorn. We saw some today growing in a damp pine woodland. I would also agree with a parasol (macrolepiota)

These were very small and in clusters

I believe this one is inkcap (which has been seen in this area before)

A few fungi from my trip to Lineover Wood at the weekend.

Not brilliant photos as I was precariously balanced on an almost sheer slippery side of a bank most of the time. :scream: :giggle:

(1) Posted Image

The same fungi cropped down a bit.

Posted Image

This one was all on it's own

(2) Posted Image

Sorry that the detail isn't very good in this photo but I couldn't get any closer.

(3) Posted Image

I'm wondering if this fungi is the same as the last one. it was in another part of the wood but looks quite similar.

(4) Posted Image

These were tucked up inside a hole in a fallen tree.

(5) Posted Image

But these two were on top.

Posted Image

These looked a bit like the first lot, but were growing differently and were on the ground rather than next to a tree stump. These (there were quite a few of them) were in large rounded clumps up another very steep bank.

(6) Posted Image

Lastly, could I please have confirmation that this is Turkey tail fungi.

(7) Posted Image
