The Fungi world (86) : Inocybe squamata
This fungus is usually growing in clay soil, but always under or in the close neighbourhood of poplars.
The shot shows the last stage of its life.
Again, the species has no English name.
Dutch name : Populierenvezelkop
German name : Dunkelschuppiger Risspilz
Latin name : Inocybe squamata

I can just say the german name "Dunkelschuppiger Risspilz" fits perfectly to this bizarre looking fungus ( but the dutch name sounds more nice in my ears :-) ) Excellent capture with great sharpness and colors. It's always intersting to look at your pictures Mark.Greetings

Still a very attractive fungus with the "peeling" stem and all those interesting details on the top .... the green grass sets it out beautifully. I really enjoy your fungus images, Mark.greetings, Adele
