Leucoagaricus ooliekirrus
A delicate mushroom with gleaming white cap, stipe and gills. The cap (20mm wide)had a slightly flattened umbo which in some mushrooms was tinted a buff colour. The stipe had a delicate cuff-like annulus and appeared almost translucent below the annulus. Some caps were slightly damaged by rain (pics 3&4).
Spotted in damp eucalyptus forest amidst sodden leaf litter. A south Australian species. Distribution: http://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:b...
