  1. Cute! Compare to Cystolepiota sp. Posted 3 years ago
    1. Maybe this one? But, maybe not.

      1. That is one tough call. I came across that species but your reference photos are much more similar to my photo. What confuses me is this distribution info:

        1. Is First Nature a UK site? That might be the reason for their distribution notes? I was going by this:
          https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?taxon_id=516118

          But, just to clarify, I am not confident in the species-level ID. It seems very rare.

          1. Odd distribution? Perhaps its widespread but rare to see? I'll give it a try on FB, see what others think. Posted 3 years ago
