Spent a couple of hours yesterday searching for morels in Pembrey
Forest. Started well when I came across this Morchella esculenta, but
sadly this was to be the high spot as there was nothing else after.
In
fact not many fungi of any description except a fair number of beige
mushrooms which I took (not very scientifically!) to be Russet
toughshanks ( Gymnopus dryophilus)
I agree that more likely one of the Melanoleuca --- I have seen some but very slug damaged. Also saw a probable M esculenta but again slugs had eaten most of it (along track where Tony had found M.elata last year.
Tony has suggested a Cavalier (Melanoleuca)for the beige mushroom rather than a toughshank, which is probably correct.
