| Description |
English: Orange Peel Fungus (Aleuria aurantia). This species is one of the so-called cup-fungi, though its cups gradually become more irregular and flattened as they develop. The initial form is well seen in these photos: 961026 and 274612
All three photos also show a very typical habitat of this species: sandy or gravelly grassland, of the sort that might lie beside a path. That was the case with the example shown here, which was several centimetres across. This is a common species, occurring from early autumn to early winter. [Roger Phillips, "Mushrooms and other fungi of Great Britain and Europe"] It is unlikely to be confused with any other species, except for Scarlet Elf Cup (Sarcoscypha austriaca), but the latter occurs on dead wood, not soil. |
