Fungi Photos and Identification

Not wanting to be outdone by Morgan’s photography from our recent fungi foray here are my photographic efforts.

I’d like to be able to identify the various fungi too, but I’m not to hot when it comes to fungi identification so if anyone knows what they are then post a comment and let me know. Especially if I can eat them!!

I’ll make some tentative attempts at ID though.

Fungi 1 – Sulphur Tuft – Hypholoma sp.
Fungi 2 – Still working on this one!
Fungi 3 – Earthtongue – Geoglossum cookeianum?
Fungi 4 – Hmmm there are so many like this I have no idea – yet
Fungi 5 – This is more difficult than I thought!
Fungi 6 – Common Eartball – Scelroderma sp.
Fungi 7 -No idea as yet.

    I’ve had an ID from someone else too:

    1 and 2 are Sulfur Tuft
    3 looks like Xylaria polymorpha – Dead Mans Fingers
    4 & 5 Mycena sp
    6 Scleroderma citrinum
    7 ?

    So I got some of them right!
