The stipe was unusually short, but there was but a half inch of soil in the Budweiser can from which the fruiting body was emerging.
On Trichaptum biforme (previous observation)
Two of the same species within a foot of each other. One a broader cup shape and one narrower and with more of a “cup stem” to it. Smells like wet wood chips but worse — like kind of a bad sulphur? Acidic? Vinegarish? My sense of smell is still not yet back to what it was from being sick) smell along with the more chlorinish wet wood chip smell... Maybe Helvella acetabulum most likely but accepting other suggestions. It is under a white pine tree near enough to oaks and an elm too
Also on top of the right hand wood rail of the bridge going into Jacobus park
Growing from an art outdoors at the Domes... found at the Basura Bash by the Clarke Square Neighborhood group. This was no basura though, I felt like it added to the art installation/bench. Incidentally the show dome theme currently is “Mushrooms, Mosses, and Mums”
No gill photos yet, because I will return to take more photos of this as it ages & will make another observation
