Extract from Wikipedia article: Mycena rosella, commonly known as the pink bonnet, is a species of mushroom in the Mycenaceae family. First called Agaricus roseus by Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries in 1794, it was assigned its current name in 1871 by German scientist Paul Kummer.
Mycena rosella is a small to medium-sized fungus with a bell-shaped cap that ranges in color from pale pink to reddish-brown. It has a slender stem and gills that are attached to the cap. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, Mycena rosella typically grows in clusters on moss, ferns, and other vegetation in moist, shaded areas, particularly in coniferous forests. Fruitings often occur from late summer to early autumn. The species is considered rare in the region, but can be found in protected areas such as nature reserves and parks.

Pink bonnet mushrooms (Mycena rosella) near Dibuny, north-west from Saint Petersburg. Russia, September 28, 2017Unnamed Road, Pesochny, Sankt-Peterburg, RussiaMycena rosella was observed in various locations in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia. In Komarovo, near Shchuchye Lake, the fungus was found on September 17, 2016. The following year, it was spotted in moss west of Kavgolovskoe Lake near Toksovo, with multiple observations recorded on September 15, 2017, including a collection of specimens and close-up photographs. Further observations were made near Dibuny on September 28, 2017. The fungus appears to thrive in mossy environments, with repeated sightings in similar habitats. These observations suggest that Mycena rosella is relatively common in the region, particularly in areas with suitable moisture and vegetation. The species was found to grow in close proximity to lakes and other bodies of water, likely due to the humid microclimate.
