Extract from Wikipedia article: Clitocybe rivulosa, commonly known as the false champignon or fool's funnel, is a poisonous basidiomycete fungus of the large genus Clitocybe. One of several species similar in appearance, it is a small white funnel-shaped toadstool widely found in lawns, meadows and other grassy areas in Europe and North America. Also known as the sweating mushroom, it derives this name from the symptoms of poisoning. It contains potentially deadly levels of muscarine.
Clitocybe rivulosa is a small to medium-sized fungus with a funnel-shaped cap, typically 2-6 cm in diameter, and a wavy or irregular margin. It has a grayish-brown to buff-colored cap and white to pale yellow gills. The stem is slender, 2-5 cm tall, and 0.5-1.5 cm thick. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Clitocybe rivulosa is commonly found in late summer to early fall, often growing in clusters on moist soil, moss, or decaying wood in coniferous and mixed forests.

White slender funnel mushrooms Clitocybe rivulosa (Clitocybe dealbata)(?) near Kuzmolovo, north from Saint Petersburg. Russia, August 10, 2017Unnamed Road, Leningradskaya oblast', Russia, 188663Observations of Clitocybe rivulosa in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia reveal that the fungus can be found in various locations during different times of the year. In late September, small light brown funnel mushrooms were spotted between Orekhovo and Lembolovo. In October and November, late funnel mushrooms were observed in Sosnovka Park, with similar sightings in Pavlovsk Park in late November. The following summer, white slender funnel mushrooms were found near Kuzmolovo in August. These observations suggest that Clitocybe rivulosa can thrive in the region during both autumn and summer months, with a possible extended fruiting period. The fungus appears to be widespread in the area, with sightings in multiple parks and locations throughout Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia.
