89	Hi there everyone, On 1.4.04 I found an ink cap that had around L = 90, growing singly or in tufts, fleecy scales (rounded, white) and oblong spores with an ...	gin_ann2000	Apr 6, 2004 8:52 pm
91	Hi there, I managed to get the photos into the Coprinus file. If anyone wants more info I can email them My notes. Gina...	gin_ann2000	Apr 6, 2004 11:41 pm
92	Nice pictures Gina, which look like Coprinus lagopus to me, and that would fit your description of the spores. As the royal Danish mycologist had it "lagopus...	mycorec	Apr 7, 2004 12:18 am
94	Hi there Ted, Thanks for your reply. I wasn't really looking at those species for the following reasons. The ink caps on both dates had adnate gills that...	gin_ann2000	Apr 7, 2004 10:10 am
96	Dear Gina, A good point, the lagopus suggestion was certainly duff in view of the cap colour. I agree with Keir that C. domesticus is a good bet. Alternatively...	Edward Tuddenham mycorec	Apr 7, 2004 7:31 pm
97	Hi there Ted, Thanks for your suggstion of Derek Schaeffer. I'll write to him to see if he has time. I've got the traditional spore print of the hydrated one...	gin_ann2000	Apr 8, 2004 8:40 pm
98	Dear Gin, In reference to your Coprinus sp. In the case of C. domesticus, firstly on or around the substrate where you found the specimens look out for a rust ...	Andy Overall andy_overall	Apr 9, 2004 2:26 pm
99	Hello all, I have posted up some recently taken pictures of Morchella elata- complex species (note the horizontal ribs)both taken in North London Gardens one...	andy_overall	Apr 9, 2004 5:54 pm
100	Hi there Andy, Great pictures ! Thanks for your input. I ruled out C. domesticus. I know it a bit and it's a bit too chunky to be the species that I found. It...	gin_ann2000	Apr 9, 2004 7:11 pm
101	Great finds Andy. I had despaired of seeing Morels in Middlesex. According to BMSFRD elata has only previously been reported in VC 21 5 times. I shall have to...	mycorec	Apr 9, 2004 9:34 pm
102	Ok Gina, If you think you can manage it, it may be worth trying to look at the PP cells (cap cuticle) they seem to differ a fair amount between species. Derek...	Andy Overall andy_overall	Apr 10, 2004 12:02 pm
103	Hi there Andy, Thanks for trying for me. With luck and practice I may eventually find something with my microscope that I can identify apart from the spores....	gin_ann2000	Apr 10, 2004 7:36 pm
104	Hi Gina, I find with microscopy that it is good to start practising on something you know well, that you would have no problems in IDing macroscopically and...	Andy Overall andy_overall	Apr 11, 2004 6:33 pm
105	Thanks Andy, I'll give that a go. Tommorow C. micaceus investigation maybe. Gina....	gin_ann2000	Apr 12, 2004 2:25 pm
106	Having seen the recent corresp on using a microscope, I thought I would mention that there is a BMS short course on "Workroom techniques for the field...	pat.cavanagh@... patcavanaghp...	Apr 13, 2004 8:03 am
107	I wonder if the LNHS could organise microscopy evenings? The Sorby N. H. Society (Sheffield area) does these regularly covering any topic that people want from...	Paul Mabbott paul_mabbott	Apr 13, 2004 9:20 am
108	We could have a formal advertised session on this topic. I will raise it at the next Botany section committe meeting. In the meantime there are of course many...	mycorec	Apr 13, 2004 1:19 pm
109	Following Ted's note, Kingston University have quite a good microscopy lab, and the Natural History director is a keen mycologist. Also, an LNHS Recorder is a...	MIck Massie mick_massie	Apr 13, 2004 5:00 pm
110	Hurrying across the park to catch a train I noticed a mushroom in the grass. I marked its position by a bench and a tree, then continued across. When I...	hilarybrindley	Apr 14, 2004 3:00 pm
111	My favourite patch of St George's fungus is invariably mown at least three times during its season of flushing and I have to check it every day to avoid the...	mycorec	Apr 14, 2004 10:48 pm
112	Hi there, I wrote to Derek Schafer and he has found the caps to be of C. xanthothrix. Hooray !!! Something I can hopefully now recognise in the future. Gina....	gin_ann2000	Apr 16, 2004 6:46 am
113	Yes!!! I have very recently acquired my first microscope, having completed an excellent microscope-based course on liverworts & mosses at The Natural History...	ingrid glass jimmimoosh	Apr 17, 2004 7:37 am
114	Have just created a new album for 'cup' fungi. The only picture in it is a specimen that appeared last week in my front garden. I have tentatively assigned it...	mycorec	Apr 17, 2004 9:20 am
115	I am driving to the Chilterns tomorrow about 12.00 am for an early spring foray. If anyone would like to join me I have a couple of spaces in the car. My house...	mycorec	Apr 17, 2004 11:57 am
116	I did a 10 mile walk around Princes Risborough today, Chinnor, Bledlow etc - it was excellent, as always. First walk of the year in shorts. Enjoy yourself...	Mick Massie mick_massie	Apr 17, 2004 7:15 pm
117	You picked the right day! Tomorrow will be very wet and windy so if anyone thinks of coming bring wet weather gear (and let me know). Regards, Ted. ... From:...	Edward Tuddenham mycorec	Apr 17, 2004 8:08 pm
119	Hi there, I've added a photo of P. vesiculosa to Ted's cup fungus file and, since there are others struggling with a microscope, added a scan of my microscope...	gin_ann2000	Apr 23, 2004 12:04 pm
120	Hi Ted, On the subject of Paxina, they have now be assigned to Helvella and the species you are referring to is now Helvella leucomelaena, you can find it in...	Andy Overall andy_overall	Apr 23, 2004 7:33 pm
121	Thanks Gina for your microscope sketch. We had large Pezizas (didn't manage to identify further) growing on the damp living room wall, some years' ago, wish...	ingrid glass jimmimoosh	Apr 24, 2004 9:54 pm
122	Hi there Ingrid, I'm pleased the sketch of P. vesiculosa was interesting. It was my best result with my microscope so far. There is a Peziza that grows only on...	gin_ann2000	Apr 25, 2004 9:41 am
