Second visit to Oldbury Hill

 

Towards the end of my very quick visit I came across these pale caps which turned out to be either Cortinarius alboviolacea or more likely it now appears, Cortinarius acutispissipes, newly recognised as present in Britain and now (according to the DNA so far) to be the commoner of these two sister species, with slightly larger spores. Very pleased that Geoffrey Kibby confirmed on the Facebook post that I was at least in the right area!
