User's notes

This series was taken over a week. Quite an amazing species of Hygrocybe that must be sent away for identification. I think it may be Hygrocybe arcohastata due to the dramatic colour changes it underwent during those few days growing in the mossy bed with a trichoglossum sp and some lovely coral.

I can look into this if you want and try and get a name for this delightful little fungus.
