Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca var. pallida
No obvious, distinctive, smell or taste. About 30mm high and 15mm across the cap. Growing in an urban ‘flower-bed’ with very small evergreen trees. Substrate fairly sandy with layer of woodchip mulch on top. Thanks to Alan on MO for the possible Genus ID of Clitocybe: http://mushroomobserver.org/119065?q=wsQ... recently thought it could be a False Chanterelle Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca with unusual colouring similar to this; http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/936...
