Panaeolus sp. (Panaeolus)

 

Panaeolus fruit bodies are small mushrooms found growing on soil (especially manured soil) or dung (in particular the large droppings of animals such as horses or cattle). The caps may grow to several centimetres in diameter and are conical to campanulate, some shade of brown, smooth and may show a pattern of cracks on drying. The gills are very dark (and mottled)  and the stems are slender and fairly fragile.  

 

Spore print black.    

 

The mushrooms often appear in large numbers, but in general separately and not growing in clusters with multiple stems from a common point.

 

Panaeolus sp. is listed in the following regions:
