Fungi at Ferndale Park, Blue Gum Reserve and the Lane Cove River – 18 May 2022

This was a full day spent visiting some reserves near Chatswood then walking along the Lane Cove River to another spot and photographing the fungi that was out. The fungi season is starting to improve in a big way!

Gliophorus psittacinus

Ferndale Park

Quite a few waxcaps and colourful coral fungi was out.

Gliophorus chromolimoneus

Gliophorus graminicolor

Hygrocybe aurantipes

Humidicutis sp.

This species starts of like the one above. It has yellow gills and is all green. Then the cap flattens and develops an umbo. It later changes to pink if conditions are right.

These two were growing on a rotten log –

Hygrocybe sp.

Clavulinopsis amoena

Clavulinopsis fusiformis

Clavulinopsis corallinorosacea

Clavaria zollingeri

Pseudohydnum gelatinosum

Chlorociboria aeruginascens

Blue Gum Reserve

The fungi here was not as abundant as at Ferndale Park.

Gliophorus graminicolor

This has appeared in the same spot that I have seen it before. I only found one.
