Hi, Surajit ji,

Seems to match my posting of Coprinellus disseminates.

Garg Sir,

I agree that the pictures in this post looks very very similar to yours. In fact i should have left the ID as Coprinus (or Coprinellus) sp. only.

Not only the above, the pictures in following sites also seem to suggest this as C. disseminatus -

• http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~5850.asp
  
• http://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/gilled%20fungi/species%20pages/Coprinellus%20disseminatus.htm
  
• http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinellus_disseminatus.html
  

On the other hand C. micaceus in the above three sites are -

• http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~5856.asp
  
• http://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/gilled%20fungi/species%20pages/Coprinellus%20micaceus.htm
  
• http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinellus_micaceus.html
  

Now, please note the stipe length in all sites above -

1. up to 4 cm = C. disseminatus
2. u to 8 (8.5) cm = C. micaceus

The picture, P1040987.jpg has more than 4 cm stipe. Perhaps the community has members with longer stipes.

Please also note that in my another post from the same dead and rotten stump, at https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!starred/indiantreepix/OKDicob8DqQ, the mushroom has stipe more thick than C. disseminatus.

So, i think this is C. micaceus.

Thank you,

Regards,

surajit
