Collected for the 2012 Organization for Tropical Studies “Fungi and Fungus-Like Organisms” Course, lead by Drs. Andy Miller, Priscila Chaverri, Greg Mueller, Carlos Rojas and Julietta Carranza
An ink cap of some sort (Coprinus, Coprinellus - one of these I am guessing). Emergent from rotting branch lying across small tributary stream to the Kaipatiki. Fruiting body very delicate, c.45 mm long. Pileus dull grey to grey-blue, covered in fuzzy, warty lumps. Gills white on margins becoming darker due to inky black spores. Stipe blue-grey to white near base, covered in fine fuzzy scales.
