Peziza sp.
Unknown species of Cup Fungi spotted near Hossawa Fall in Tokyo Prefecture, Japan. This fungus was growing on the trail floor, presumably on decomposing leaves and/or sticks.
Most fungi in the genus peziza is found in Europe and the Americas, though there are still high possibilities of it being found in Japan.
It is for sure some sort Peziza sp.
