Black Trumpet
The trumpets are 1-5 cm wide and 3-9 cm high. They don't have a clearly defined cap or stem, but are tubular at first and then become deeply vase-shaped with age.
This is a common mushroom species, but can be hard to see because of it's size, color, and shape.

Craterellus fallax is a species of "black trumpets" that occurs in Eastern North America where it replaces the European taxon Craterellus cornucopioides. C. fallax can also be separated by its yellow-orange spore print, where Craterellus cornucopioides has a white spore print.
