Lesser Rooting Xerrula - a photo on Flickriver

Lesser Rooting Xerrula

Emerging from the dead roots of a large Pin Oak that blow over in my yard several years ago, a new mushroom emerged this year in my lawn with a deep rooting system reaching down to the rotting oak roots.

The Lesser Rooting Xerrula (Oudemanisiella megalospora = Xerula megalospora = Hymenopellis megalospora) was a new yard mushroom for me.

Gills attaching to the stem, a slimy cap, a deep tap root, white gills and large lemon-shaped spores help make the species determination.

The upper insert on the left shows the gills and the white spore-print on black paper. The insert at the lower left shows the spores.

Beaverbrook Environs, Howard County, Maryland.
