Extract from Wikipedia article: Mycena galericulata is a mushroom species commonly known as the common bonnet, the toque mycena, or the rosy-gill fairy helmet. The type species of the genus Mycena was first described scientifically in 1772, but was not considered a Mycena until 1821. It is quite variable in color, size, and shape, which makes it somewhat difficult to reliably identify in the field. The mushrooms have caps with distinct radial grooves, particularly at the margin. The cap's color varies from grayish brown to dark brown and the shape ranges from bell-like to bluntly conical to flattened with an umbo. The stem is hollow, white, tough and thin, without a ring and often roots deeply into the wood on which it grows. The gills are white to grayish or even pinkish when mature and are connected by distinct cross-veins. The caps can reach 4 cm (1.6 in) in diameter, and have a mealy odor and taste. The spore print is white and the gills are pink at maturity, which can lead to possible confusion with species of the genus Pluteus. M. galericulata mushrooms grow mostly in clusters on the well-decayed stumps of deciduous and coniferous trees from spring to autumn. The species can generally be considered inedible. It is common and widespread in the entire temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere, but it has also been reported from Africa.
Mycena galericulata is a species of mushroom in the family Mycenaceae. It has a bell-shaped to conical cap, typically 1-3 cm in diameter, with a margin that is often wavy or lobed, and a slender stem, usually 2-6 cm tall. The cap is brown to greyish-brown, while the gills are narrowly attached to the stem and whitish to light brown. This fungus grows on decaying wood, stumps, and other plant debris, typically in moist environments. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Mycena galericulata is commonly found in forests, parks, and along waterways, particularly during late summer to early autumn, often fruiting in clusters or small groups on coniferous or deciduous wood.
