Pluteus Salicinus

Pluteus salicinus

Pluteus salicinus - rather like a deer mushroom - P. cervinus - but smaller, paler, greyer and with a tufty, felt-like texture near the center of the cap. Grows in damp places.

Wrinkly Little Red Mushroom

Monday Mushroom #106

Here's a rather small, but well formed ヒイロベニヒダタケ- Pluteus aurantiorugosus. 

Pluteus aurantiorugosus - hiirobenhidatake

Both the Japanese and latin names refer to its stirking cap colour and wrinkly texture.

Pluteus aurantiorugosus

This is a fairly rare little mushroom - it isn't in most of the field guides and doesn't even seem to be talked about much on the internet.

The cap is both eye-catching and distinctive in terms of colour and texture.
