Hi Small Wonders! I'm J or jgorneau. :) This is definitely a Cyathus genus, perhaps Cyathus striatus, or even Cyathus helenae, I'm not completely sure myself. Here is a link for Cyathus striatus: http://www.mushroomexpert.com/cyathus_striatus.html Here is a link for Cyathus helenae: http://eol.org/pages/1008393/overview To me, this looks more like C. striatus, but I'm not 100%.
