Extract from Wikipedia article: Mycena rosea, commonly known as the rosy bonnet, is a species of mushroom in the Mycenaceae family. First named Agaricus roseus in 1803 by Danish botanist Heinrich Christian Friedrich Schumacher, it was given its present name in 1912 by Gramberg.
Mycena rosea is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Mycenaceae. It is characterized by its small to medium-sized cap, typically 1-3 cm in diameter, which is pinkish-red to reddish-brown in color and often has a slightly wavy or wrinkled margin. The gills are crowded, narrowly attached, and pale pink. The stem is slender, 2-5 cm tall, and colored similarly to the cap.
In St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, Mycena rosea can be found growing in moist, shaded areas with rich soil, often near deciduous trees such as birch or aspen. It typically fruits from late summer to early autumn.
In north-western Russia, Mycena rosea is a relatively common species, particularly in the regions surrounding St. Petersburg and the Karelian Isthmus. It can be found in various habitats, including forests, grasslands, and wetlands, often in association with mosses and other fungi. Local records indicate that it tends to thrive in areas with high humidity and moderate temperatures.
In Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia, Mycena rosea was observed in various locations. Near Lisiy Nos, south and west of Saint Petersburg, the fungus was found on multiple occasions between September 3, 2016, and September 21, 2017. The mushrooms were seen growing in groups and singly, often in dry leaves or on roadsides. Similar observations were made in the area of Lisiy Nos - Olgino, west of Saint Petersburg, with multiple sightings on September 21, 2017. Additionally, Mycena rosea was found near Kuzmolovo, north of Saint Petersburg, on September 24, 2017. The fungus appears to thrive in this region, with repeated observations over a two-year period indicating its presence in the area. The mushrooms were typically found in autumn, specifically in September, suggesting a seasonal pattern to their growth.
