Field Notes

Description:

The eyelash pixie cup is a tiny, disk shaped mushroom with black "eyelashes" around the edges.

Habitat:

Growing on a wet log near a pond in the forest

Notes:

This is a mushroom that you do not want to eat. It is not poisonous, but it is too small to be considered edible. It has no medicinal properties, either.
