  3. Really beautiful. I'm not sure on that ID either. Description of the stipe for this species:
    "Stipe: 6 – 12 cm by 2 – 4 mm, gray-brown to reddish brown, darker where handled, paler toward the apex, fibrous and pruinose."
    These stipes here are definitely pale yellow (covered in spores). I'd definitely be looking at Panaeolus or Psathyrella sp. though.

    1. thank you very much!
      I'm working with a local site (Israeli mushroom site in hebrew) - it's easier for me.
      I added pics of other angles on inaturalist, hoping some mushroom expert will help me there.

      1. Awesome! Conocybe sp. might be something to consider as well? Posted 4 years ago
