Sign In to followgreat photo Alex! I couldn't get that close with my camera in my recent spotting.
thankyou Arlanda. I've just spotted another which I will add and funnily enough I said it looked like dog sick!!
Hi Edward, I think it was a rotting native New Zealand cabbage tree :)
I've been looking at your references Alex and I think several of my recent spottings fall under the catagory of 'slime molds' thankyou
thankyou Steven, I have added a link :)
Scutellinia scutellata, eyelash cup. Eric I think you are right. It was hairy round the edge. Thankyou
I think you're right Edward as it looks the same every time I walk past it and hasn't 'opened'
thankyou Edward. I've yet to find which mycena it may be. It also could be a kind of inkcap?
thankyou Alex the Mushroom King! I was half expecting someone to tell me it was not a fungi but some kind of insect larvae!
wow, that was quick Eric!! thankyou I will check it out further :)
it is flat, not cuplike
