    Hmmmm....I'd say Gymnopus before Mycena...

    Possibly on a conifer twig?
    Looks similar to Baeospora myosura? Were there any visible rhizomorphs?     Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago

      Thanks for the input, Lisa!

      Could be a conifer twig, but there were no conifers in the area. It does resemble Baeospora myosura, but there were no rhizomorphs. Also, the gills were sooo weird.       Posted 6 years ago
