Maybe False Chanterelle - Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca ? About 50 mm. Creamy white spores.

I have found Coprinus auricoma now. My main book was printed in 2004 so I suppose there have been a few changes since then.

my thoughts on the last few, pisces77 - Lactarius species, possibly Lactarius delicosus or Lactarius Deterrimus, but there are similar ones too. Grayling - 1/ Daedalea quercina looks good 2/ Lycoperdon perlatum 3/ Russula species (species is usually as far as i get with Russulas ) 4/ most likely to be Daedaleopsis confragos - the blushing bracket. Geoff - i would say spot on with False Chanterelle - Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca

Agreed with Ashgale on these but will also add the following.
John's lactarius is Lactarius deliciosus.
L.deterrimus is similar but grows exclusively with Picea (I can see a Pine needle to the right of the photo)
The Russula sp would need a lot of investigation, some of which can be done at the point the fungus is found, but very hard to pinpoint beyond that.

1/ a Suillus species, maybe S.luteus? the cap looks sticky/slimy which is an indicator of slippery jack 2/ Lactarius deliciosus/deterrimus (see below) 3/ Amanita rubescens, the Blusher, regarding the Lactarius, i recall a discussion on wildaboutbritian fungi forum some years back, that implied that there was possibly a crossover between tree hosts, so while the type of conifer can be a help in the id of this group, the tree species cannot be a clear cut indicator of the species !

I'd go with Slippery jack as well.
I had also read something about this crossover between tree hosts so i passed the id on to a mycologist i know. It appears that there are differing views as to the validity of such and therefore adds to the complexity of identification down to species level, as if fungi wasn't hard enough!
I know that Lactarius deterrimus has a smooth stem and that Lactarius deliciosus has a stem with pits on, something called scrobiculations i believe, again, whether this is widely accepted as determination between types i suppose depends on the author of the literature the fungi identification is published in.
Very hard to determine which is correct and i suppose there will always be a difference of opinion which makes fungi and it's allies such a fascinating subject matter.

A couple from the weekend - both of these beneath conifers. For some reason I thought this was a Chanterelle species but after seeing the photos above I'm thinking they are not Originally I wondered whether this was Wrinkled Club but now, after a suggestion that it might be a Leotia species so I had a look in my book and now wonder whether it is Yellow Fan Spathularia flavida.

Thanks for the help.
So what can go on the Fungi Challenge?
Presumably my Mycena haematopus and False Chanterelle are OK. But what about those from various other posters?

All of those that have been positively identified can be added Geoff, including yours. The others that have a slight conflict of id's might have to remain as such, unless we can do 'aggregate' of types such as Lacatarius deliciosus/deterrimus. Failing that, we might have to wait for positive id's (such as when i go out in the field and obtain id's through various tests etc)
Feel free to add yours Geoff and anyone else that has had a positive id.
When i have come back from Norfolk i'll screen all the ones that have been positively identified, then i will add all those ones that have been identified by myself seen in Norfolk and any remaining ones at the end of the year can be added as 'agg' if and where applicable, obviously where more than two species are involved they will have to remain as unidentified.

Found on Hincheslea Moor, Brockenhurst growing at edge of stony path (13 September 2018).

Yours Jan is Mycena aetites.
I think those have pores Laurie as opposed to gills so this might make yours a Suillus sp.

Thanks Dave. I didn't take a proper set of photos from different angles for a definitive ID, but I just thought I'd get a basic shot and hope for the best

I think these could be Golden Scalycap - Pholiota aurivella- but I'm not sure. My book says they are widespread, but occasional and more common in the south on Beech, but do grow on deciduous dead logs. These were just north of Aviemore and on a dead Birch log. There were 2 groups, one older than the other. The older group;

I seem to end up at Inocybe for these; but not sure where to go after that, maybe Inocybe asterospora? Around 40 mm average diameter, mid brown spores, broad leaved woodland. No distinctive smell.
