Wildlife Spotting

Like miniature pikelets, these pale mushrooms were growing in clusters. Caps (40mm wide) were darker in the centre and, in mature caps which were flat, there was a marginal ring of pale short white fibres.
Young caps were dome shaped and the margins were densely fibrilose. The gills were a a pale reddish-brown and the colour continued down the stipe. The base of the stipe had a significant amount of hyphae and these seemed to wrap around the lower third of the stipe.
