mushroom

Description:

A very small mushroom with a flat smooth cap 4mm wide and a very slender translucent stipe about 2cm long. The cap was uniformly brown. The underside of the cap revealed dark brown gills.

Notes:

This tiny mushroom was spotted growing in sugarcane mulch in a pot, after recent rains. the pot is also regularly watered. I have no idea what this little mushroom is but I was delighted when I found it by accident. Could it belong to the Mycenaceae family ?? I would really appreciate any help with an ID - thanks.
