Definitely C.archeri – my later photos showing ‘fingers’ didn’t load . Smell was ‘putrid’ but only obvious from some specimens. 30 + ‘eggs’ and fully developed in one area…

I’ll give up for the moment as extra photos still not showing

Not sure why but some of my photos didn’t appear… I’ll try and add more – ‘egg’ and better fully developed

Favolaschia calocera – recent work at Kew has determined that the species found in UK is F.claudopus which seems to have originated from Australasia where it is a species of concern as it out competes many other fungi on wood so potentially could be a problem in UK. I’m not an expert on these just passing on recent information from Geoffrey Kibby…

Mal, There are a few sightings in England and 1 in Scotland being posted on BMS fb page but I don’t know if people are recording their finds.

Cobalt Crust Terana caerulea (coerulea in a lot of databases) – 8 locations found in less than 2 hours Brynna Woods NR, Glamorgan. Out of 325 records on ADERYN (all Wales LERC) database about 80pct in Glamorgan VC41. Not sure if VC41 is really such a hot spot or because we have good dedicated recorders? Photos 1. on Garden Privet 2. on Oak 3. on Hazel. Also on Ivy today – it is not picky on substrate

Hi, Not sure where your find but generally in England not common. In Scotland rarely seen. However Glamorgan VC41 seems to be frequent

3 locations within 300m of my garden last week and I’m sure a lot more that I didn’t see on a brief walk!

Nice finds! After much hunting and smelling rotten Russulas I finally found A.parasitic 2 weeks ago

Adam, Are you aware of any reason? Norwegian Mycena has been a fantastic site! Mark

Not from today and not UK but interesting fungus Clathrus ruber in coastal Brittany. Known in France as Coeur de Sorcière, the Sorcerer’s Heart …a bit more prosaic than Red Cage

Seems to occur in coastal locations southern England, Isle of Wight and Channel Islands. Only 1 record in Glamorgan VC41 as far as I know – Caswell Bay, Gower

Hi Andreas,

Any idea of UK stockists now? I will circulate information to Glamorgan Fungus Group and others.
