Fungi at Sassafras Gully – 9 April 2023

It had been a while since I had visited Sassafras Gully at Springwood to look for fungi. I had visited Birdwood Gully on the other (north) side of Springwood quite a few times recently and thought it was time to even things up a bit. on this trip – I went down the track from Sassafras Gully Road and walked down to the Glenbrook Creek junction. I walked out via the Wiggins Track.

I was pleased to find a lot of the striking light blue Entoloma virescens (now called Inocephalus virescens) out in one spot I had seen them on previous trips.

Here are some that I spotted. There were quite a few boletes.

Austroboletus lacunosis

Helotium terrestre

Bolete

Clavaria fragilis

Cyptotrama asprata

Ophiocordyceps robertsii

Cordyceps tenuipes

This one was going on the bottom of a log –

Austroboletus lacunosis

Hygrocybe sp.

Lycoperdon subincarnatum

Entoloma sp.

Ophiocordyceps robertsii

Pluteus sp.

Ramaria sp.

I am not sure what this one is – next two photos –

Clavulinopsis sulcata

Hygrocybe sp.

Inocephalus virescens group

Austroboletus lacunosis

Perhaps Galerina sp.

Amanita sp.

Armillaria sp.

Hygrocybe sp.

This was called Hygrocybe austropratensis, but is now called Cuphophyllus austropratensis
