Hi Neil

Cheers for that and it never occurred to me that it could be Butter cap. That is one less mystery solved.

:hello1: I think these mushrooms might be Cinnamon Webcap (Cortinarius cinnamomeus). They were in our garden, next to each other, under an apple tree (and bird feeder). Both are 11 cm tall and the upturned one has a brown cap, unlike its companion which, as you can see, is greyish. A third, smaller, brown mushroom of the same variety was growing close by and next to the tree trunk. If I am right with my conclusion, they are highly toxic mushrooms. Can anyone confirm my ID, please? Thanks a lot.

Many thanks, Dave. :cool2: Incidentally, the greyish one in the picture has now turned brown and so the colours are now consistent.

Hi Mick.

The first 3 photos are of Porcelain fungus in various stages. The last one is a bracket fungi of some kind and can be used on your challenge.

I would say an agaricus of some type Mick but i think that will be as close as i can get without photos of the gills.
