Toadstools, Mushrooms, Moss, Lichen, etc

The last one is quite big walnut, probably 2-3ins in diameter.

It does open up a complete new plant world Kedi.

 

Didn't realise it was that big pete it's probably Daldinia concentrica sometimes known by the common name of king alfred cakes or cramp balls.
The other one Pete could be Daedaleopsis confragosa common name blushing bracket.

 

Sooo I have cramp balls and a blushing bracket, thanks for that, WalNUT. :D

 

Never mind Pete, you can proably get ointment for it.

 

:D :D :D

 

:D :D

 

Hi Kedi

I am no mycologist but judging from the pics I would say the first ones were either melanoleuca grammopodia or possibly Clitocybe nebularis (cloudy agaric) more probably the former as they are growing in grass.
the next are either a cortinarius type or laccaria laccata (deciever)
then agaricus and I reckon that the next to last is neottiella rutilans
the last one I have no I idea.

 

all gleaned from Roger Phillips book mushroms I might add
