Redspored Dapperling- Melanophyllum haematospermum
Melanophyllum haematospermum is a small grey-brown species with a ragged edge to the cap from veil remnants. The cap surface is powdery, the cap diameter is up to 30 cm/1.2 inch The gills are pinkish when young, changing to vinaceous brown with age. They act as decomposers, feeding on dead and decaying wood, leaves, litter, and other organic matter. I was attracted to the ragged veil remnants on the cap edge.
