Hello everyone and Happy Friday for all of you...

This my contributions to #FungiFriday challenge by @ewkaw in Fungi Friday Community

Happy Friday to all of you and as usual, when Friday comes we will post on the Fungi Friday community and in this post we will share various posts regarding mushrooms and the like. This time I found Mushrooms that were different place from the previous places. Previously I found a lot of mushrooms in various dead wood trees, rotting plants, and the like. However, this time I found it in plants that were still alive, there is in around woody trees.

This mushroom is called Coprinus Diseminatus or people known as Fairy Inkcap. This mushroom will grow on some hardwood trees when the rainy season arrives, and after the rainy season ends, this mushroom will dry up instantly. In some places, this mushroom can also be found in plants or logs that are starting to rot, I think this is related to the humidity and air temperature around it. Of course, mushrooms like this usually live in cold temperature and moist place.

Fairy inkcap mushroom shape is also very beautiful. This mushroom has a canopy shape that looks like a hood, and if you see it closer, you can see small lines around the hood. As the color, Fairy Inkcap usually has a bluish-white color and on the surface of the canopy there are fine water-repellent hairs so that the canopy doesn't get wet when it rains.

Apart from Fairy Inkcap, I also found several Mushrooms on several sides of the logs. I speculate that these mushrooms come from the Coprinellus species, which is found in many rotting plants and also on some wood trees.
I don't know that these mushrooms are edible or not, but for safety, it's better not to eat them.

Visually, this Mushroom is similar to Fairy Inkcap, both in shape and size. There is a slight difference in the canopy, where the canopy is flat and wide. The color of this mushroom is usually white, but some of them are yellowish white, I think this is because of the age of the Mushroom. All two types these Mushrooms are grew in a bunch and when I found them, I would definitely see a pile of them on one side of the tree.

Those are some types of mushrooms that i can show in this post today, i hope you like it and see you on next weeks of #FungiFriday post.
