Mycena species? ABAUG01/06 : 8 posts by 4 authors. 4 images.

Found these yesterday growing on the ground next to Barberry lycium bushes. A little research on the internet has pointed to Mycena species. This paper here (http://wsmbmp.org/1/02.pdf) points to five recorded Mycena species from the North West Himalayas.

The genus Mycena is so far represented by five species in the N.W. Himalayas: M. aetites (Fr.) Quel., M. atrocyanea (Fr.) Gillet, M. golericulata, M. epiterygia (Scop. ex Fr.) Kummer. The last two have been reported from Himachal Pradesh [42, 91].

Please advise.

don’t know the name but what a beauty

stuff the fairy tales are made of

Marasmius sp.

Thank you … It does appear to be so. I will do further research and find out.

Quoting from the same paper http://wsmbmp.org/1/02.pdf on Marasmius sp.

The genus Marasmius surprisingly has been reported to be represented by just one species in the N.W. Himalaya, M. cohaerens (A&S. ex Fr.) Cke & Quel. Kumar et al. [99] reported a new species, M. ellipsoidosporus and a new record M. siccus (Schw.) Fr. from H.P.

I wouldn’t call this Mycena… I’d guess more like Marasmius sp… though I haven’t see the gill view …

Thank you … Another expert … had also suggested Marasmius sp. Here are a couple more from yesterday showing the gills and the base of the stalk. 2 images.

Appears to be Marasmius rotula (Scop.) Fr. as per details and references herein.
