Yellow-stemmed mycena

Mycena epipterygia sl, incl. epipterygioides

Description:

The sticky cap of the yellow-stemmed mycena grows on a yellow slimy stem. Caps are conic, dark yellow to light olive brown and typically 0.4 to 1 cm in diameter. Gills are adnate, fairly broad, nearly white to yellow. Stems are elastic, 3 to 8 cm, with a slimy surface. Strong yellow at first, fading quickly in sunlight to yellowish white

Habitat:

Saprobic on coniferous wood. Can be found in deciduous and coniferous woods, but it is also found in heather and agrid grasslands.

Notes:

Suggestions are more than welcome, because I'm not sure if I have the right ID for these fungi. Spotted in Paleispark 't Loo in rural area of Apeldoorn, Holland. (sources:see reference)
