I am the village green fungus appreciation society


Spotted these this morning, in a shady corner of the little triangle of village green in the centre of Small Dole.

I reckon they're Pale Brittlestem Psathyrella candolleana. They're certainly brittle.


Veil remnants hung around the edge of this fruit body, like tatty bunting.


Among the mass of fruit bodies, I found young and old: showing how the brown fruit bodies fade to pale beige as they get older.


Think I can probably get away with ID'ing these without getting them under the microscope...
