from the World of Fungi

a pretty mushroom I found last week in a very boggy and wet area in the Richmond Nature Reserve ..
Thank you , Mark Billiau for your research on this pretty mushroom.
It's a Psathyrella candolleana or in English : Pale Brittlestem. This fungus occurs in all kinds of woodlands and woodland clearings as well as on timber buried in damp grassland, but sometimes also on lawns. Can be found throughout the European mainland and in North America. Edible but not worthwhile in terms of taste.

Many thanks go to Carlo Pollaci for proposing my image for the FC.com gallery:
