small white mushroom

Description:

Small white mushroom with a 20mm wide pileus and a stipe about 25mm long. The cap had a prominent umbo which was pale brown and the rest looked shaggy with flecks of pale creamy colour. the margins of the cap looked "ragged". Gills were a clear white, evenly spaced not crowded and ran all the way from margin to stalk. There was no frill on the stipe.

Habitat:

damp tall eucalyptus forest

Notes:

found these growing on very damp ground under fallen leaves and gum bark. very fragile looking although not very delicate. Will keep looking for an ID but if anyone know what they are, please let me know. Thanks
