I spent a very interesting and enjoyable day with Sue at Springwood, visiting Birdwood Gully to see what fungi was out. The previous day, I had been quite disappointed with the fungi I had seen along Wolli Creek, but I thought the Mountains may be better – given that they had experienced a lot more rain.
We were quite pleased with the fungi we spotted. And the rain cooperated – we had no rain while we were in the gully.

Ramaria sp.
Lactifluus flocktoniae
Clavaria lilacina (Clavaria zollingeri ) and Clavulinopsis sulcata
Strobilomyces sp.
Candelolepiota sinica
This species grows in nooks at the base of Coachwoods. It always exudes droplets. I previously identified it as Leucocoprinus lacrymans (= Leucoagaricus lacrymans
now – Candelolepiota sinica). Candelolepiota sinica is supposed to have an annulus while Leucocoprinus lacrymans is described as having an annulus that falls off without leaving a trace. I have seen the ones above or very similar growing with an annulus, while these ones here clearly seem to have no visible annulus.
Slime Mould
Boletellus sp. Perhaps Boletellus deceptivus or Boletellus ananiceps.
