Wild Mushrooms of Ainsworth: Walnut Mycena

Walnut Mycena
(Click on images to enlarge)

I had to get up close and personal with the forest floor to discover that these little guys were indeed growing on the remains of walnut or hickory nut shells.

Tiny, delicate mushrooms, the largest cap being about 3/8" in diameter.
