Possible Xylaria cinerea at Ranscombe Farm, Kent, this afternoon. Seems a good record if ID is correct. @Love_plants @BritMycolSoc #UKFungi @mushroomdiary @KentFieldClub

@mushroomdiary, any thoughts on this (other than it is strangely beautiful)? Thanks in advance...

@MoiraBenson @SE22mum They do like growing in LA age groups don’t they? 😁

@VickiMarsland That’ll be a confirmed ‘yes’. What a great find ✊

White line round rim, chunky stem, light reticulation, top like a brown bread bun…check ✔️ Gasp. Have I found my first ever penny buns/ceps/porcini after years of searching? @mushroomdiary #mushroomID

40% of the UK's ancient woodlands are vanishing before our eyes. Now, we have one golden opportunity to save these Forgotten Forests. The English and Scottish Governments must put plans in place to rescue them, before it's too late. #ForgottenForests campaigns.woodlandtrust.org.uk/page/166361/ac…

@hutton112329 No probs. The caps didn’t look like Armillaria and they grow all over dead wood/stumps & logs. Dead roots underground also. But really hard to tell as they were so old.
English
@mushroomdiary Thank you for responding! A FB group thought it was Armillaria? They were all over my lawn but yes were dying back so I forgot they were there..Shes fine thankfully 🐾😍
English
@mushroomdiary can you tell me what kind of mushrooms these are? Need to know in case my puppy ate one 🥺

One of these days, a large comet will hit Earth and destroy almost all life, as has happened many times in the past.
Eventually, the Sun will expand enough to boil the oceans and destroy all life.
Either become a spacefaring civilization or die – those all the two choices.

🚨NASA TRACKS STADIUM-SIZED ASTEROID FLYING 'RELATIVELY CLOSE' TO EARTH NASA is monitoring asteroid 2024 ON, a massive 1,150-foot by 590-foot object moving at 20,000 mph. It passed within 621,000 miles of Earth on Tuesday morning, close enough to be deemed "potentially hazardous"—though there's no risk of impact. Experts say such asteroids come this close every 5-10 years. The last major impact was in Russia in 2013. 2024 ON is one of five asteroids passing by Earth this week. Sources: Fox

Nature has to be at the heart of upcoming planning reforms.

@georgie_lawson Hmm. My best guess, I would say it’s a very old/dying Giant Polypore (Meripilus giganteus). See my post on it here:

@NigelWi51585735 @FantasticFungi @WildFoodUK I would say so, yes. But can’t be 100% sure without seeing the gills and stem in detail. Cap looks spot on though.
English
English
@philjo61 I think white stem is what we’re looking for. But they don’t look like they have them
English
@mushroomdiary Hi, can I ask please if these are Blueleg Brownies? Would you believe they are growing on the carpet in my allotment shed and about 80mm tall & cap diameter 50-60mm
English
@philjo61 Not 100% sure. Do you have pics of the stem and gills in detail?
English
@bigdaddysco Sorry to report. It’s a Yellow Stainer. Can cause gastric upset/sickness: mushroomdiary.co.uk/2010/08/horse-…
English
@mushroomdiary hi , these mushrooms have appeared for the first time in my garden this year . Please could you help identify them . Thanks.
English
@philjo61 Red!? That’s got me confused. I was thinking the Shaggy Ink Cap (Coprinus comatus) at the end of its life. All gills dissolving into inky liquid, spreading the spores. However, the cap can have browny/pinkish colouring on the less shaggy areas as it ages just before this happens.
English
@mushroomdiary Can anyone help confirm or deny my suspicion? Found these in leaf litter in our garden, are these Death Caps? or something more benign?
English
@potterandy @johnmushroom Hey. Sorry Andrew. Looks like you didn’t have an answer for this and I’ve been away. It’s difficult, I admit. But one of the Clitocybes. Too big to be the Fragrant Funnel and the other species (which I’ve seen once before) I’ve forgotten the name and traits. 😩
