Fungal Frenzy. 2b; Extra Space [v2]


As threatened promised, because there were just too many for one post.


Right, let us start with something vaguely pretty and possibly even interesting, as I'm not sure what the frick it actually is..

[ooh?]

Oooh!
Pretty.

A Honey Fungus? But wait.. A Rustgill? But again...

Let us see a close up;

Shaped like a Spike?!?

Those decurrent gills, umbo-ish cap, and narrowed stem and collar are very Spike-like. But it's growing in a mass out of a stump like a Rustgill. It looks like a cross between Golden Spike and Spectacular Rustgill.

Glorious thing, whatever it is. :)


EDIT: This looks a lot like a Sheathed Woodtuft that has lost its stem scales, but the silvery longitudinal fibres on said stem and the fibrous nature of the ring lead somewhere else... Funeral Bell, anyone?

[I hesitate as I have seen Funeral Bells at Fernworthy and they didn't remind me of Spikes at all.. But apparently how much water they've taken up can affect their shape, so maybe..?]
