Extract from Wikipedia article: Galerina hypnorum is a species of agaric fungus in the family Hymenogastraceae.
Galerina hypnorum is a small to medium-sized agaric fungus that grows in moss, typically in coniferous forests. In St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, it has been found in sphagnum bogs and damp areas with abundant moss cover. In north-western Russia, it is commonly associated with Sphagnum spp. and other mosses, often fruiting from late summer to early autumn. The fungus is characterized by its brown to reddish-brown cap, 0.5-2 cm in diameter, and slender stem, 1-4 cm long, with a ring or annulus present in some specimens.
