Description: A large flat mushroom approximately 16cm across the almost flat cap. The cap shades from dark brown to pale fawn, showing cream where the darker layer appears to have split. The stipe is approximately 1.5cm in diameter and 10cms long. The ring is descending but not clearly defined right round the stipe. The gills are milk chocolate in colour. Another smaller specimen shows a similar upper surface but paler pinkish gills. These specimens were picked at the roadside under trees.

Description: Found just outside the woods, in the grass, 6 or 7 of these fungi. The stem starts off shaggy, then seems to go smooth as it ages. The cap starts round, though not perfectly round, and opens out flat. The gills seem to start off white, then go pink (as seen through the hole), and later become brown. The mature fungus (sorry no photo - memory card full) has flat cap, brown gills and had diameter of about 25cm!

Description: Thick base, sturdy fungi! About 10cm high 7-8cm wide. Didn't expect to see fungi in the garden at this time of year (especially as it's been so dry).
