Mycorrhaphoides sp. A very similar fungus [ Mycorrhaphoides stalpersii] has only recently been discovered in India. These have a growth habit similar to Podoserpula pusio in that they form a pagoda-like structure of multi-tiered brackets growing from a central stipe. These along with several others are growing on the root system of a dead Planchonella obovoidea [Black ash, Yellow teak] tree. I used to collect many seeds from this tree during the 1980's & 1990's when I was deeply involved in reforestation of hillslopes. Top of left hand specimen is 11.5 cm across. Height approx. 16 -17 cm. My block.
Marasmius sp. Collected by mycologist. This grey species is usually scarce but this season has been prolific on dead palm fronds & dead ginger leaves. Caps to 1 cm in this group. My block.
I.D.'d as Marasmius nigrobrunneus by mycologist Fran Guard [ Oct. 2023].
Hygrocybe sp. Caps 1-1.5 cm. Of approx. 20 found the largest cap was 1.8 cm. These are one good reason that I check my lawn before mowing. My block.
Hygrocybe sp. One of a group to pop up on my lawn. Dug this one up for this shot with a black background to show how green this species is. Cap is 1.3 cm across. Refer to tag "Hygrocybe 15 " to view others of the same species. My block.
Cyptotrama asprata. Immature specimens. Each cap measures 8 mm across. This is one of three images taken over 5 days showing its progress. This is DAY 1. My block. Refer to tag "Before & after No.3" on my tags.
Lentinus crinitus. Note two caps coming off the one stipe. Doesn't happen very often. 35 mm rain over 4 days brought these up. I've added the tag "Fungi doubleheader " so that if you click your "mouse" on it you can see other doubleheaders that I have found. Largest cap 2.5 cm. My block.
Mycena sp. Tiny, caps 2-3 mm. Mostly occur on inside of bark that has detached itself from a dead branch or log during wet periods.
My block.
Hexagonia apiaria. I.D'd by Matt Barrett. Gill shot of No.263 & 268 either side on my photostream. 7 cm across. On Longan tree branch. My block.
Hygrocybe astatogala. Largest cap 6 cm. Final black stage of this fungus. Wish that I had found this group a few days earlier. My block.
Aseroe arachnoidea. One left over from 8 years ago when I first found them amongst horse dung under some fruit trees. Images of these are extremely rare. My block.
Coprinopsis sp. on decaying palm fronds & twigs. Caps to 2 cm.
This particular Coprinopsis is usually on logs that are in the final stage of rotting down. It differs from other Coprinopsis in having a very shaggy stipe. Refer to tag "Coprinopsis sp. 13" to see others of this particular species. My block.
