Cyathus novae-zeelandiae Bird’s nest fungus Nidulariaceae
These small fungi with vase-shaped bodies are usually found tightly packed together growing in potting mix and in litter particularly if some dung is present. The outside of the fruiting body of this species is hairy and fawn-coloured, becoming grey. Inside is a shiny grey and the upper portion is internally striated. In the base there are the ‘eggs’ or peridioles, which are splashed out by raindrops. Several species may be found together.

Coprinus disseminatus aka Coprin dissemine, Fairy Inkcap Coprinaceae
Fairy Ink Cap.
This little Inkcap occurs in great numbers on dead tree stumps, decomposing and recycling the rotten wood. The caps start off very small, under a centimetre, and then develop to slightly bigger than a thimble. When young they are a beige colour, but as they age this turns to grey, then black. Stipes are white, downy at base. It is quite common in the autumn, and is not poisonous, but not worth eating.
