  Thanks Ernst! Perfectly young and fresh. I was leading a small group foray, first time since Covid-19, and it was found (and collected, quite carefully) by a participant. I carefully perched it on this mossy log to gain better light. Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago

  I think so too! So many mushroom features drop away as they age, with rain, or as they are handled. This one was in its early prime, yes?! Posted 4 years ago

The Yellowfoot Dapperling

Lepiota magnispora is a beautiful woodland species easily recognized by its coarsely scaled, yellowish-brown cap, appendiculate margin, shaggy stipe, free gills and white spore print. Unlike many Lepiotas, the partial veil does not form a well developed annulus.
