Autumn fungi: Japanese umbrella

Autumn fungi: Japanese umbrella

Japanese umbrella mushroom (Parasola plicatilis, also called pleated inkcap) growing on wood chip mulch by the Severn at Bridgnorth. Very common growing in short grass, small and delicate looking, they shed their spores and disappear within a day.
