AI-generated description

Hypholoma myosotis is a species of mushroom-forming fungus that belongs to the family Hymenogastraceae. It is found in St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, typically growing in clusters on decaying wood, stumps, and tree roots in coniferous and mixed forests. The cap is 2-5 cm in diameter, bell-shaped to convex, with a gray-brown to dark brown color, and a smooth or slightly scaly surface. The gills are gray-brown to black, and the stem is slender, gray-brown to black, and fibrillose. It fruits from July to October, and is considered an edible species, but not highly valued due to its small size and bitter taste.
