Cortinarius web

Cortinarius sp.

Description:

From above this seemed a very unobtrusive little mushroom, almost unnoticeable. About 35mm wide and 40mm tall. The under view revealed the last few net-like remains of the cortina still clinging on to the stipe..

Habitat:

In an open, dry sclerophyll eucalyptus based forest. Local nature reserve.

Notes:

Possibly C archeri but the stipe is not common http://bie.ala.org.au/species/Cortinariu...
