    I am trying to ID some of the mushrooms from Mayne Island.

    There were about a hundred of these mushrooms growing on a fallen log.

    Cap: about 1 – 1 ½ inches I diameter, shinny, brown, dimple in the centre

    Gills: same colour as the caps

    Stalk: mostly darker colour than the caps


    Are these Hygrophoroid sp. (Waxy Cups)?

    Hi David - Xeromphalina. For closer ID, need information from under the cap as well as taste.
