    Found on unk wood remains...the wood was so deteriorated no way to ID.
    NE Kanas....dry area of woods.
    All the mushrooms sprouting out had this very fine nesting of hair-like growth...possible mycelium? or?
    The closest to an ID that I've gotten is a possible Pluteus...maybe P. longistriatus.......
    They had a pinkish-peach spore...visible with the tiered couple...
    Largest cap was approx. 1 1/2 inch.diameter...when young they had very cup-shaped caps. Color a pale white to med cream/tan with aging. Med. spaced gills. unattached....no determinate odor besides the woods.

    Maybe Collybia peronata? Not sure.
