@joachim.seide, I changed the category for you from "other" to "fungi".
One of the benefits of putting it in the correct category are that it brings you one step closer to identifying a species. Helps you to decide which mission to enter your spotting in. But the biggest benefit is that you will get your rewards and badges promptly.
if you have any confusion about the correct category ,please feel free to ask any of us. We will try our best to answer you. Some organisms can be a little puzzling. Snails are categorized as "other' in Project Noah. Cray Fish are arthropods and so on and so forth.
Wishing you fun on Project Noah!!

@ joachim.seide, this spotting should be categorized as" fungi "and not as "other". Please edit and categorize the spotting accordingly. Thanks and Welcome to project Noah!!

From this angle, I'd say it's a type of Bolete.

Joachim, are there any shots of the gills and/or stem?
Try to remind it generally for further mushroom shootings - it helps a lot to identify them.
A top-shot usually doesn't tell that much - mushrooms vary extremely in the appearance of their caps as they grow from juvenile to adult state.
