User's notes

The rounded fungus base has broken off its short sessile stem, and it's top appears to have burst outwards resulting in a flat plate with very ragged edges. It feels light and papery when dry (which these were. I Spores were densely spread in an untidy patch. I will add another sighting of the same fungus.
