Field Notes

Description:

The taste was slowly very bitter, about 5cm at a guess. Gills were about this white in real life as well. Initial guess was sulphur tuft, hypholoma fasciculare var. fasciculare

cheers lars, I've uploaded a couple of pictures from a day later after taking a spore print and setting it out to dry for a couple of hours. Also a zoomed in image of the fresh gills. Just about to upload spore print too.

I don't think it's a Sulfur Tuft, rat.tumour - especially as you mention the gills to be white; Sulfur Tuft has initially yellow gills that become more and more greenish with an adult state. Also the caps should look different in that adult state (more "dirty").
