# JimCornish You are right. I have not been careful enough in finding the right name. :( Thank you for your message. :)

Is it possible you have misidentified the scientific name for this one. The caps on Coprinopsis atramentaria are a lot smoother and often shorter. Could this be Coprinus comatus?
