The second was what I decided was Mucronella calva after much consideration. I could not decide whether it was a clustered clavarioid or a toothy resupinate. I tried to make it into Kavinia alboviridis (FTE1 p.1041) which is very rare. Although it had what appeared to be a 'cotton wool subiculum', it gave no colour with FeSO4 and had smaller spores so it wasn't. I have two reservations with M. calva - height was up to 2mm but FTE states up to 1.5mm, and the very few spores I could find (it was deteriorating quickly even on Saturday evening) appeared to be non-amyloid although otherwise consistent. Did anyone else take a piece? M. calva would be the 4th Norfolk record. I dried what remained.

Further to this Tony then added

Looking at your image of Mucronella calva I am increasingly doubtful of my identification -
it really should not have branched or bifurcate 'teeth'. If the team wanted you could try to get a sequence. I will write it up as aDNA proposal.

Curious how in these instances the growth form of the fungus is reminiscent of the branching structure of a tree.

Notice also the dulling effect on the surrounding tissue compared with the glossy greenness of unaffected tissue.

cf Leucoagaricus badhamii flesh

From
Tony L

I did spend time on Saturday evening with two fungi. First, the stout reddening agaric found by Sean. Everything pointed to Leugoagaricus badhamii except:

  • Very large stature. The cap had not expanded but FN gives stipe diameter as 3-6 (-10)mm - ours was 15mm.
  • Marginate base to stipe.
  • Bruised orange (not red) when fresh although that evening it only did so at the apex (reddening elsewhere). Any bruising quickly went black (as L. badhamii).
  • Cap went grey with KOH (3%), not green (although possibly greenish-grey). FN states it should go green.
However, there really isn't anything else it is closer to (in Kibby or FN). It was too young to have spores but I offer it for DNA sequencing if the team thinks that is justified.
