Interesting not a species that I have come across.
I think to immature to name.
I dont think this is Hemitrichia calyculata maybe to immature to name.
This looks to be a Descolea species.
I wonder if this is not a Ramaria sp. did you happen to make a spore print as this would have been tan for Ramaria or white for something else.
Hemitrichia clavata normal are upright on individual stalks these are more likely Trichia verrucosa
I don't think I would call these cute not once you have been bitten by one!
I think I would go for a Stereum species
Hi Leuba, Not sure how long I am going to be able to stay logged in here before I am band again :) bit this is easier then emailing you directly. I doubt this is Coprinus atramentarius which is the largest of the inkcap. Its more likely Coprinopsis lagopus particularly if it has a very short life.
