Funnel mushroom

Clitocybe sp.

Description:

When I first reported this spotting, I described this fungi as "whitish carpophores with cream-cloured upper surface of the cap, with deeply decurrent gills and large stems". At that time, I was just discovering the world of fungi, and failed to note down many important characters - flesh, odour etc... Now, I think this would be another Trooping funnel (Clitocybe geotropa), but, not being sure, prefer to keep on genus level.

Habitat:

Foothills of Jura massif; our town park, wooded area. Grows on the forest floor in deep shade; well covered by falling leaves.

Notes:

Note of 09 January 2022: here is the link to my recent spotting (correctly IDed I believe...) which made reconsider this old spotting and comeup with ID: https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/19...
