Hardcastle Crags Thursday 9th October 2014

Here are the fungi I found whilst walking Basil in the Crags.


Giant Polypore (Meripilus giganteus) above and below.
This was growing out from the roots of a fallen Fagus sylvatica tree.






Yellowleg Bonnet (Mycena epipterigia) above and two below.


There were lots of these growing on the banking beside the footpath.


The stems have a gelatinous coating that can easily be pulled away.


Black Bulgar (Bulgaria inquinans) above and below.





Crested Coral (Clavulina coralloides) above and three below.


It has cristate, branched tips.





Spores 6-8 x 6-7 microns


Hare's Foot Inkcap (Coprinus lagopus) above and four below.








The scales on the cap stuck to the leaves after I laid it down to photograph it.


Spores 11-13 x 6-7 microns.


White Saddle (Helvella crispa).
