Summary edit

Description
English: Cheilymenia cup-fungus on dung. These small orange discs measured up to about 5mm in width, and were found very close to the place where a similar species was encountered in the same habitat: 989043.

However, though similar in shape, size, and colour, the cup-fungus species shown here is quite different in that the margins of all of its discs are fringed with short hairs. See the above link for more on that topic; compare, also, a similar cup-fungus that grows on wood: 925583.

Two common Cheilymenia species in Britain that grow on dung are C. fimicola and C. stercorea, but it requires a much closer examination to distinguish between them.
