Hygrocybe insipida?
John RKeymasterJohn RKeymasterJohn RKeymasterPlease find attached an updated species list provided by Dom.
John RKeymasterAlso listed as Basidioradulum radula (Toothed Crust) in Buczacki. It looks good to me.
John RKeymasterHi Doug
Very nice photos.
If you go to the bottom of the V6 recording sheet there is a tab labelled GB checklist, Serpula himantioides is present on that.
Tom is the person to talk to – but you can unlock wth spreadsheet and add it to the species list in order to record it.
Cheers,
John
P.S. I have sent Tom an email. His answer is below..
“Yes…it us easy to add a missing species BUT if everyone did so we would have several versions of the recording sheetin circulation…and not everyone would be as cautious as you, Doug,in getting the addition right. So. The advice I have put out is primarily do not add. Just notify me and I will check, add and insert on to the record sheet from individuals when submitted. That keeps everything ship shape.
Best,
Tom”John RKeymasterLooks good Doug 🙂 I had to look up “strigose”..
John RKeymasterJohn RKeymasterHere is a key that might be useful
If link not working then Keys to Fungi on Dung on this page http://www.britmycolsoc.org.uk/library/keys/index-phpcid951/
John RKeymasterHi Doug
I’ve been working on the same one and ran into the same problem as you. I think it’s Cheilymenia pulcherrima (although the spores are a bit big. EDIT: they are OK in other sources). I collected it from sheep dung, so I think we both get a record according to Tom’s rules…
However, there are 10 species in the UK but I don’t have access to this key http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0953756296801705
John RKeymasterJohn RKeymasterSporangia. Approx 0.5 mm high.
Capillitium x 400
Spores x 1000

John RKeymasterYes, seems good to me. The spores are visually correct – just a bit larger than reported.
John RKeymasterJohn RKeymasterHi Jill
Plase could you keep a dried sample for me (if it’s not too late) and I will collect it from you at the next foray you are attending?
Kind regards,
John
