oh what a shame , Dave but many thanks anyway ... i have no other photos of that one but it looked different from others with a similar growth pattern and place That creamy , more solid look .

When i eventually do get a new camera .. it'll be with the tilting screen :nod: .. it might help . At the moment i just hold the camera as low as i can with one hand :Cool:

This is the last from the above lot ..239, the little disc but i can't find the particular one .... they have so many different stages which i've learned from here .

Hi Jen

Was the one labelled as Sulphur Tuft growing on a mossy log?

267/268/271 - Laccaria laccata
292 - Agreed on Porcelain fungi

hi , Dave .. thank you for the above which i've now named :thankyou2: I'd never have thought of Laccaria laccata ..... though i can now see a likeness from one book :Cool:

As for the ? sulphur tuft :nope: i honestly can't say . I can see the moss beneath the ground along the direction of a log but i really can't remember : ( I see from the photo next to it that it must have been along the entrance path which could easily have buried old logs/pieces of tree / bark . The leaves around seem to be like cotoneaster ? but i don't remember them being in that area :doh: it doesn't seem likely .

Thanks for the info Jen.

Having looked more closely i have come to the conclusion that it is a Hypholoma type and more likely Sulphur Tuft.

They can look very different at certain stages Jen and it does make it tricky.

I saw this fungus on Thursday when walking in my local RSPB reserve it was growing on a willow tree along with a couple of other types of fungi and I wondered what sort it was.

This one was growing at the base of an oak tree in the car park.

The last one Hazel looks a little bit like an Inocybe type Can you remember whether the cap was fibrous or smooth?

Dave, could you ID this one for me please.

They were quite small and on pastureland.

Hi Marg

With those pale gills and lemon-coloured stipe i would probably say Hygrocybe ceracea (Butter Waxcap) but i'll check through my guides/keys just to make sure.

Thanks Dave, I was wondering if it was that. I'll wait for you to confirm it, if it is, then a few more points. :grin:
