So jealous we don't get them in England!
Thanks Gully! I'm going with the name haha. Sorry Mark, I'm not sure how I missed your comment.
I have a list of mushrooms whose names I don't want to forget. Today I was going through it and came across Heliocybe sulcata. I thought to myself that I hope it comes up soon. And then I came across this spotting! It didn't seem to have a common name so I made one up based on the Latin. Furrowed Suncap might sound more professional but definitely less cool!
