Beautiful!

Thanks Gina and Alex. That's ok Gina, I know you! So it's for sure a Hygrocybe, I just put in the description the possibilities of different species.

you are both right you will need to find out if its hygrocybe virginia or coccinea.

I am about to ask that ...lol sorry Dan as you know I am as daft as ever when it comes to geographic maps.

Gina, I think you are mistaken, according to Wiki and the National Audubon Society Field guide to N. American mushrooms, it does. It also grows in Europe and across the northern Hemisphere.

thesetime it just an indicator, the climat change, everything will be shipped, before, the clathrus archeri wasn't growing in europe (its an australian mushroom). i wll not wondering if the coccinea has make his way to usa.

Guys H.coccinea does not grow in Canada.

Hi Dan, wow Its hard! :-(.... I will do more research.

not only on the same page, i just wanted to write your comment kinda similar, most likely is H.nigrescens--> synoniem for coccinea ---> and this an other spelling for coccineus. wait just for gina-- she will give a third suggestion-then you will know it for sure. ^^

I think we're on the same page Alex! Thanks! It is a bit confusing with the taxonomy changing.

or more likely H.coccinea --- look almost the same, the bigger different is again the name. somethimes it's confusing, with all the new and different names. coccinea ---> (http://www.google.nl/search?um=1&hl=nl&safe=off&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=zrVsToacHoXt-gbLnKzXBA&ved=0CDgQBSgA&q=hygrocybe+coccinea&spell=1&biw=1108&bih=576)

I was thinking something similar, like Hygrophorus coccineus http://images.google.com/search?tbm=isch&hl=en&source=hp&biw=1276&bih=680&q=snapping+turtle&gbv=2&oq=snapping+turtle&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=19894654l19897151l0l19897288l15l8l0l0l0l0l0l0ll0l0#hl=en&gbv=2&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=hygrophorus+coccineus&oq=hygrophorus+coccineus&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=465934l485331l28l485477l23l23l1l13l13l0l1233l3234l0.3.4.5-1.0.1l9l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=55a89ad6629c7f47&biw=1276&bih=680
