Norfolk fungi for ID (1 Viewer)

James Emerson

After a late start to the fungi season locally, there seems to be a lot about now. I would appreciate thoughts on these three from wooded areas in East Norfolk today.

1) I think this might be Phlebia rufa, however some of the 'spines' appear forked
2) Not sure about these - my best guess would be a Coprinellus sp that hasn't opened up yet, but there were a few and all looked like this.
3) I think these brown Oysterling-types will be a Melanotus horizontalis?

Thanks,

James

Hi James,

1 - No idea, but IME P.rufa tends to grow on large decorticated pieces of wood which is not the case here...
2 - I can't see a veil so I would tentatively suggest an immature Mycena sp.
3 - Yes, M.horizontalis, for sure

Cheers,
Nick

Here are a few more fungi from recent woodland walks. Highlights not included here include Green Elf Cup and Pipe Club var contorta. Of these, I've IDd the orangey one ass Pluteus aurantiorugosus, but its so nice I thought it was worth posting. On the same log were the white ones. I was stumped by these, but Pleurotus dryinus has been suggested. The final one was growing on some cut edging posts and I'm not sure if it could be something Hohenbuehlia-like, or something related to Crepidotus.
