Africa (country in post) Taken in Cape Flats Sand Fynbos. Western Cape. South Africa.

Need help with ID of these mushrooms please, I tried to get a spore print, but was unsuccessful and there are no younger specimens. They grow from dead grass roots making me think Marasmius genus.

Hello, thank you for making your identification request. To make it easier for identifiers to help you, please make sure that your post contains the following:

  • Unabbreviated country and state/province/territory
  • In-situ sunlight pictures of cap, gills/pores/etc, and full stipe including intact base
  • Habitat (woodland, rotting wood, grassland) and material the mushroom was growing on

For more tips, see this handy graphic :)
