Certainly Mycena-like in appearance. Mycenas grow on wood or twig litter and perhaps there is some wood beneath the grass and moss. However, if this mushroom was not growing from wood then Entoloma is a possible genus. Species of Entoloma show a variety of growth forms, some being Mycena-like. in appearance. The major macroscopic difference between the genera is that species of Mycena give a white spore print, those of Entoloma a pinkish-brown spore print.
