      I moved MykoGolfer’s post (above) into this topic from his separate individual post, as he’d titled it Fungus of the Day.

      For future reference, would all posters please ensure that any Fungus of the Day posts are directed to this specific and ongoing thread/topic only. – Otherwise we’ll end up with multitudes of separate “Fungus of the Day” topics. ;)

      Regards,

      Mike.

      Beech Jellydisc – Neobulgaria pura

      Not one I see that often despite it being supposedly common on fallen beech … rather like Black Bulgar that I have never found…must be looking in the wrong place ;) ;)

      Nice image, John.

      Not one I have seen. My trips to the woodland at Stornoway are not at the best time for the species.

      Cheers, Chris

      Ellis and Ellis I says this is common on Alexanders, though there are few British records. I’ve found it on the few occasions when I have looked for it at this time of year; it is reported to occur on other members of the Apiaceae as well – the type collection was on garden parsley: http://www.librifungorum.org/Image.asp?ItemID=96&ImageFileName=0360b.jpg” class=”bbcode_url”>http://www.librifungorum.org/Image.asp?ItemID=96&ImageFileName=0360b.jpg (bottom of page). And of course the rust Puccinia smyrnii was there as well.

        Still on just the one log at Millington Chris. I was going to say Millington Wood but with the amount of felling going on it could soon be Millington copse.

        Hi

        Following on Chris’s post on Seifertia azaleae I when to my local park and soon found plenty on the Rhododendron buds. Here are a couple of my photo’s

        The spores confirm this is not Radulomyces molaris:

        Hemimycena tortuosa – Dewdrop Bonnet, found at Longshaw on a large sycamore trunk. I think the twisted stem and cap cystidia indicate this species, together with the spores and gill edge cystidia with fine nippled tips. The “dewdrops” on the stem weren’t immediately very obvious to see.

        Eryrithricium (Marchandiomyces) aurantiacum Growing on Lichen on Picea branches. There are not many records in UK (4) but probably overlooked. I looked for the Teleomorph state but no basida or basidiospores found.

        At last! Plenty of boggy places around VC41 but this is first place I’ve seen this thanks to Emma Williams Glamorgan Fungus Group. USBx10 photo

        Geopora sumneriana – with Cedrus – to which it is restricted. In a park near Derby

          Trichopeziza mollissima

          Very little about around here so had to resort to fishing dead hogweed stems out of a stream edge …. pretty happy that these are Trichopeziza mollissima although as ever my lack of a microscope prevents genuine certainty 😳

          Nice shot John

          unfortunately this is a difficult area – Hans-Otto Baral is Europe’s Mr (or perhaps “Herr”) operculate disco man and he says he is now confused by the fungi in this species-cluster – see his comments on this thread: http://www.ascofrance.com/search_forum/39974” class=”bbcode_url”>http://www.ascofrance.com/search_forum/39974

          cheers

          Chris

          PS don’t let this put you off disco’s – they’re not all this confused/confusing

          Thanks for the link Chris, you will have spotted my “reservations” in the original post and now I see I was very right to do so …. still at least I am in the correct genus.

          Cheers
