Summary edit

Description
English: Ink-cap, maybe Trooping crumble-cap (Coprinus disseminatus)? A batch of these suddenly appeared between paving stones outside our kitchen door, stayed long enough to be identified, and crumbled away by next day. This is another batch, which appeared today by our water butt. I picked one of the tallest, height 70mm, diameter 18mm, no ring or volva, gills very dark, and it does drop spores. I think I have the correct identification - I thought at first it was a common ink-cap Coprinus atramentarius. Later, looking at The Mushroom Expert article on inky-caps http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinoid.html, it seems they are hard to identify, only differ when viewed under the microscope, and are being reclassified following DNA studies. So I may never know the correct identification.
