I joined the Sydney Fungal Studies Group Inc and members of the Wolli Ck Preservation Society for their second fungal survey of Wolli Creek Regional Park for the year. At present, conditions are not very good for fungal fruiting. Too much rain has fallen! Nevertheless, we did spot some reasonable fungi.
Here is some –
This one was going in the grass near the picnic area –
Laccaria sp.
Xylaria apiculata
Postia lactea
Trichoglossum hirsutum
Ramariopsis crocea
Phaeolus schweinitzii
Hexagonia tenuis
Gliophorus graminicolor
Aleurina ferruginea
Hydnum repandum
Entoloma sp.
Perhaps Hygrocybe leucogloea
Perhaps Singerocybe clitocyboides
Clavulinopsis amoena
Trametes coccinea
Thelephora terrestris
Phellinus robustus
Gymnopilus junonius
Descolea recedens
We also saw three different species of Greenhood Orchids along the track.
Pterostylis nutans
Pterostylis pedunculata –
Pterostylis concinna
Thanks to all those people who came along and helped find the fungi. Thanks also to Lachlan Copeland for an orchid id and to Ray and Elma Kearney for advice on the fungi id’s.
