Mycena epipterygia (Scop.: Fr.) Gray, syn.: Mycena viscosa Maire, Mycena citrinella (Pers.: Fr.) KummerYellowleg Bonnet, DE: Dehnbarer Helmling, berhuteter HelmlingSlo.: prevleena eladicaDat.: Oct. 22. 2015Lat.: 46.40463 Long.: 13.70942Code: Bot_922/2015_DSC9561Picture file names: from Mycena-epipterygia_raw_1 to Mycena-epipterygia_raw_6.Habitat: mixed wood, Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica dominant trees; among mosses, flat terrain, calcareous ground, moist place, in shade, partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 4-6 deg C, elevation 960 m (3.150 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: soil, small, rotten branches, leaf and needles litter.Place: Zadnja Trenta valley, 50 m northwest of the final parking place of the access road to Zapodn place, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: There are hundreds of species and lower level taxa of genus Mycena described in the literature. The species of this genus are all but simple for determination. Taxonomy is not yet settled and is constantly changing. However, Mycena epipterygia is relatively easy to spot and recognized. It is a common fungus and its characteristic elastic and removable hut cutis and lightly yellowish (with green tint in this case) and like half translucent appearing stipe are reasonably reliable traits for an amateur determination. A good test is also as follows: after one breaks its hollow stipe into two parts, both parts remain connected with a rubbery, elastic cuticle. Nevertheless this species is highly variable in color, size, spore width and other characteristics. In this observation the mushrooms were growing scattered solitary and in small groups of a few fruit bodies, altogether 12-15 pilei on a few m2 of forest ground; pilei diameter 8 - 12 mm, stipe 5 - 8 cm long and 1 - 1.8 mm in diameter, stipe hollow and covered with a thin elastic cuticle like pilei; taste and smell unpleasant, weakly on soap?; SP too weak to enable reliable color determination, possibly whitish.Spores smooth. Dimensions: 8 [8.8 ; 9.3] 10.1 x 5.3 [6 ; 6.5] 7.2 microns; Q = 1.3 [1.4 ; 1.5] 1.6; N = 20; C = 95%; Me = 9 x 6.2 microns; Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil, in water.

Mycena stipata Maas Geest. & Schwbel, syn.: Mycena alcalina (Fr., Fr.) Kummer, Mycena alcalina sensu auct. p.p.Stump Fairy Helmet, DE: Buscheliger SalpeterhelmlingSlo.: opasta eladicaDat.: April 15. 2016Lat.: 46.39540 Long.: 13.69986Code: Bot_944/2016_DSC1359Habitat: mixed wood, Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies dominant, calcareous, alluvial ground, almost flat terrain, probably locally acid ground (Vaccinium myrtillus abundant), in shade; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 3-5 deg C, elevation 1.000 m (3.280 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: stump, roots and small twigs of Picea abies in the last stage of disintegration.Place: Zadnja Trenta valley, 'Zapodn' place, right side of (dry) bed of river Soa, between a small dam and the first ravine downstream of it, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comments: Mycena stipata is relatively recently defined (1987). Two varieties (some authors consider them species) are known, which differ only microscopically: Mycena stipata var. stipata and Mycena stipata var. silvae-nigrae. The last one is typically a spring taxon, but its spores are according to Krieglsteiner (2001) significantly larger that what I measured (10-15/7-10 microns). Mycena stipata var. stipata grows mainly in autumn but also appears in spring. Spores fit well to this taxon.Growing in groups, a few together and also single; about 20 fruit bodies all together in an area of about 0.6 x 0.3 m; pilei diameter 16 - 26 mm, height 10-16 mm; stipe 2.5 - 3.5 mm diameter and 3 - 5 cm tall, hollow, fragile, smooth, with white mycelium at the base; taste rather strong, unpleasant; smell mild, mushroomy, on chemicals, a kind of nitrous; SP abundant, whitish-beige, oac900; pilei cuticle peels off in long narrow bands up to one half or more of pilei diameter. No microscopic study of hyphae and basidia has been done; hence the determination is not certain.Spores smooth. Dimensions: 8,5 [9,6 ; 10] 11 x 4,9 [5,7 ; 6] 6,8 microns; Q = 1,5 [1,7] 1,9; N = 40; C = 95%; Me = 9,8 x 5,8 microns; Qe = 1,7.

These little white fungi match the description in Australian Subtropical Fungi of Mycena yirukensis. There is another, similar fungus, Mycena austrororida, but we saw those in Tasmania and they look different to these Goomburra fungi.Photo by my husband, Chris Ryan.
