Mushroom

Field Notes
Description:
These mushrooms flourish in the early morning and are gone before it gets much later in the day. Whitish bell-shaped cap flared around the edges with light-brown gills underneath. Fragile tall stalk.
Habitat:
Growing in the wood chip mulch behind my house in an older suburban neighborhood with mature trees.
Notes:
This most closely resembles the White Dunce Cap (Conocybe lactea) in my Audubon guide, but it's growing in late July, and White Dunce Cap is supposed to grow May-June and in September.
